#1042 Sunday 30 November

It's been a hard night .... K was very tired last night and she was putting on a performance as a result ..... we took her off to bed early and she settled by about 7:30 ..... but the loo routine was upset and so she wet the bed at 3am.  By 4am she was wide awake and spent some time downstairs. Now it's 6:30 and the day should start according to Kaylia! The timer is running......

Her iPad has a "giant timer" app .... it's very good for times like this and she will watch it count down go the next hour .... while we try to sleep.

It's 2pm .... what a day.  Kaylia's been constantly anxious all day.  The car time is the only respite we've had from the nagging about the doctor or about school.  She can be diverted to telling a story about them but the cycle seems to be endless.

At the moment she's in the outside bath with hose time.   So we have a little break.

4pm .... this has been really hard to take.  Naomi and I are both very tired .... and Kaylia is relentless.... we've resorted to "timing her out" .... it doesn't really correct the problem but it gives us a break for a few minutes.  We were racking our brains for some explanation of what is going on .... and realised that the full moon is coming !!!   .... Next Saturday .... at least we have an idea of what's going on 

Bedtime:  she calmed down eventually... and the evening is finishing on a good note.  I'm glad today is over.
