Thank you @j9k. I'll try hard to keep some self care as a priority. I won't let it all go I promise. It's just difficult to work out how. And how to do it without feeling guilty because I'm 'indulging' myself. It's the aeroplane mask analogy. Put it on yourself before you put it on your child. I get it intellectually! Just so hard for me to implement it emotionally.
My kids get one freebie a year when it comes to forgetting to bring something to school. After that they're on their own. Real life consequence is definitely the best teacher. Nothing like getting a detention for not having your sport uniform to make you remember it! K xox
