23 June 2009

I called Julia to see if they wanted to play, and as she had some mums going to her place she asked me to go too. It was extremely hot, at about 30C by 10am. Emily played happily alongside the other kids for an hour and then I started to feel terrible so we had to leave. She fell asleep on the way home and I transferred her to her bed then fell into ours. We both napped 2 hours.

By the time we were up and about it was getting late. That meant it was somewhat cooler so I took Emily to Hon Shiba park. At four the sun had gone off the park and it was quite comfortable there. She played in the pool and then the sandpit (which meant she got covered in wet sand, which is a devil to get off and invariably ends up all over the apartment).

I had to stay with her as she was upset at bedtime again. And then, after less than an hour she woke crying hard. It took an hour to calm her back down - I think it may have been wind, which she rarely gets these days. I felt really groggy and bad tempered, and unfortunately Nick got the worse of it, so I expect he was happy when I trudged off to bed.
