It has been a difficult day today. It was my turn to have a wobble. I woke up feeling sad and then I read an email from a very dear friend in the UK, and although she was being very helpful and supportive, it made me even sadder. I got lots of cuddles from my three boys which helped although I can't really explain to the small ones why I'm sad.
We went off to the airport this morning to take back the Big Biffa Car and collect two more less Biffa Cars. I could tell that Huffle was struggling to keep it together. (The hire people were being a bit troublesome). In fact later on he told me that he wished we'd had our bags there so we could go home. NO - this is not supposed to happen. We are only allowed one wobble at a time. That was the deal. One wobble, the other sorted them out. Oh boy, this is sooooooo hard.
The boys were as good as gold waiting for us.
We took our new Hire cars and drove into a Toronto Mall and caught the subway into Downtown Toronto (Tur-Ron-oh).
I had no idea what car I was driving, what it looked and probably wouldn't remember where I parked it so I took a photo and tried to remember the number plate. Small and I came up with .......
Big momma kicks buttSmall and Smallest were very excited to go on a train which helped to lift our spirits, seeing their little excited faces.
When we came out of the station Small's face when he saw the huge tall buildings was "awesome".
It was so cloudy we couldn't see the top of the CN Tower
We liked the gold building - is it really made of gold????
CN Tower between two skyscrapers
The boys at Lake Ontario
"Can we go on a boat across the lake Mummy" they asked. "oh no" said Mummy "I'm not good on boats and it looks a little choppy, can we wait till Summer?"
A really big dog - watch out Smalls.
Small and I went in my BMKB car, we got on to the Express Way by mistake but I quickly realised that that was the best place to be, quick, speedy. Small navigated me home very well using my GPS which ran out of charge ten minutes from home, but we got there and saw a deer in the dark - NO I didn't hit it (before you ask!).Smallest went with Huffle and they got lost. Huffle has a good sense of direction though and they got home eventually.
Boys have been showered, sitting in front of the TV with a sandwich and a pot of Jello. They are happy.Huffle and I are sitting drinking a cup of tea - we are feeling a little bit better.
Also just had a lovely phone call from America. Aunty Plant and Uncle Dermott are there visiting Huffle's cousin Mr & Mrs Miami. It was good to hear their voices and Huffle had a long heart to heart with both Aunty Plant and cousin Miami.
Hope tomorrow is better. Huffle is off to work and Small and Smallest are at school - Keep busy Mummy, they will be home soon enough.
