Thursday

Me and Princess Lollipop had another quiet day, she was still tired from Little Prince's party yesterday and had quite a long nap. And when she was awake she didn't want to play she just wanted to be cuddled up on my lap, I hope she's not coming down with something else!

Drama Teen spent most of the evening after college in her room, she has had an argument with her Boyfriend and is pretty upset about it :-( She doesn't want to talk to me or her Dad about what she and Boyfriend have argued about and wants to work it out between them on their own. I just feel helpless that my little girl (Yes I know Drama Teen you aren't a little girl any more - but you'll always be my little girl) is hurting and I can't do anything to help her :-(

Little Prince went up to get ready for bed at 7.45pm and finally came down for hugs and kisses at 8.30pm (he said "I got a bit distracted" lol!! It is taking him longer and longer to get ready! We are being fairly lenient about all of this as we realise his medication is affecting his ability to get to sleep and its not something he's doing deliberately. Once he goes up to bed we have started to say that its ok to be awake, but he has to be fairly quiet and in his own room! This seems to be working and he's managing to get to sleep at a more reasonable (but not great) time. Hopefully he will carry on managing to get to sleep a little earlier each night and eventually he'll be back to having a good nights sleep!
