play time

first day back with the kids today. strange. but also strangely ok.
we went down to the river and played cricket and boardgames and sandcastles and caught jelly fish and made homes for them.
water and kids always make for a bit of anxiety but there were no dramas. not even any tears.
me however, i am exhausted. it takes a while to get back into it all.
i wish dinner was all cooked for me.
