Hey @Sunnyside226 ,
I hope you don't mind me making this thread for you.
I just wanted you to know that the whole forums community is here to support you through this challenging time.
Please look after yourself. I recognise it's hard to look after three small children on your own.

Sure @Sunnyside226 . If you think it'd help.
Otherwise, I'm here until just before 10pm if you need to see to the kids first. I'm mindful that the 6-8pm time slot is a busy time for families with kids.
I'm with my 3 nieces/nephew... School holidays so I'm with them 24/7

Take your time to answer. No rush at all. @Sunnyside226
I've travelled interstate with them and as a we will be having an family trip with my parents, my 2 sisters and their families and myself. So it'll be 12 people in total.
We hired a huge house on the river so I'm sure I'll be in the water everyday 🙂
I only talk to and see my parents once a year or something. The kids are very excited.

That's so cool 12 people is a lot I wouldn't cope with that many 😂 swimming everyday to keep cool is a way to go @tyme you must be very excited to be going? A house on a river sounds cool 😎 I put the kids love to have you around do you cool or do anything fun like play games? Go bowling? I was thinking of taking the kids there tomorrow I wouldn't know how I would cope

Kids love parks @Sunnyside226 . Get a picnic lunch ready, sit there with a mat, put the baby in the pram and go for it lol.
Cheap and easy to tire them out so they’ll sleep lol
