  1. On discussing religious faith, daughter says she has her own god. I ask what this god is like. She says: "Postman Pat."
  2. I seem to spend most of my time persuading, cajoling, bribing, threatening and haranguing 2 chlldren to do things they don't want to do.
  3. On seeing my FB page, awash with family photos, my son protests - "I thought you said not to put photos online?" Cue privacy settings chat.
  4. Daughter said it was a shame Lucy is no longer in the X-factor as she was just finding her "inner-Stacey"
  5. @gemmmmaa my 10-year old didn't like it either
  6. @MsFifer my 8-year old just said the same thing!
  7. Listened to 2 consecutive tracks on local radio this evening, before switching to R4. Is this the beginning of the end?
  8. There's nothing more irritating than shouting at your son, only to have him repeat, in a still, small voice "Stop shouting at me."
  9. Daughter muses "I wonder what it feels like to be a boy." Son answers, once he notices someone has spoken, "Being a boy is awesome."
  10. Hallowe’en or Bonfire Night?: As the prospect of Christmas shopping threatens to crowd out the hazy frag.. http://bit.ly/N3Ryf
  11. @twittermoms at the age I assume you're talking about - way over the top
  12. Son has been banned from Club Penguin - for life. He's 10. Am hoping it will save many arguments.
  13. 8-year old daughter complaining about her teacher's creative writing class - "I like to write from the heart of my head, not from a title."
  14. Having trudged upstairs, as requested, to add my good nights to her father's, our daughter expresses surprise - "I forgot I'd sent for you."
  15. Hannah's verdict on today's sunbathing couple - "Why do they do it? They just go red and waste their time."
  16. No free weekends from now 'til Christmas - are we social planners, sports enthusiasts, taxi drivers or just parents?
  17. Sick child now bored, so uniform is ready and waiting for a quick return to school. 2 days has exhausted my thin coating of nursing skills.
  18. Ministering to one sick child = dealing with another cross, jealous child who wants a day off school and tea on the sofa as well
  19. Back to France tomorrow. Have discovered a spot, high up in the kitchen, where Radio 4 FM rules. Am no longer condemned to endless cricket.
  20. Trying to enjoy being Home Alone. Not having as much fun as Macaulay. Resorted to tidying, even vacuuming. Not yet bad enough for ironing.
