And yes, evening outfit planning is the way forward. Especially if you have to get up when it’s still dark outside!

I’ve nearly been there myself! Glad you have it sorted now – I think it’s easy to forget how important it is to be a little bit selfish sometimes.

But you’re right, it’s about the little things and taking the time to be kind to yourself every now and then. After all, I always think if I always put myself last why would anyone else put me first?!

I’ve found that since my husband and I have been doing a few more things just for ourselves we’ve been far less stressed, shouty parents. And, because of that, our toddler’s been far happier too.

Am a great believer in ‘me’ time – it’s all wobbly without balance.
