Hot Day.

Yesterday was a very hot here in Perth. The temperature went above 35 deg C! It was like one of those hot summer days except that summer has not officially arrived.  I picked the boys up at daycare after work and was feeling really tired and sleepy. The boys were sweaty and cranky …. bad combination!

When we arrived home, the husband greeted us at the door and immediately asked if we wanted to go to the beach and have pizza for dinner! The boys were of course excited while I was ….. really too lazy to pack the bags and do the cleaning up afterward. I don’t mind the pizza dinner though …. And so I suggested to the boys that they go with their father while I stayed home.  Guess what Calvin said to me?

Calvin: Mum, you have to come!

Robin: Yes, mama has to come with us. How am I going to handle both the boys?

Me: I am really tired guys, I just want to stay at home. I will cook the dinner so that when you come home, there’s food for you.  You guys go ahead, ok?

Calvin: (looked at me very sincerely) It is ok mum, you can just come and sit on the sandpit and take photos!

Robin and Me: Laughed out loud!

Truth be told — that’s what I tend to do when we go to the beach — sit on the sand and take photos! My little guy knows his mum. 🙂 So, did we go to the beach in the end?  No, we did not. The ladyboss had the final say. Well, at least we had pizza for dinner. 🙂
