Pregnancy And Parenting

Found a superb time-saving tip in tight spots.

When singing Old McDonald Had a Farm, you can also use the last sentence of a verse as the starting sentence of the next verse. For example, instead of:

Quote

 

"Here a moo, there a moo, everywhere a moo moo!

Old McDonald had a farm, EIEIO.

 

Old McDonald had a farm, EIEIO.

And on that farm he had a duck..."

 

You just go:

Quote

 

"Here a moo, there a moo, everywhere a moo moo!

Old McDonald had a farm, EIEIO.

And on that farm he had a duck..."

 

A 16.67% time saver by rough calculations.

Any other parenting top tips that you've found to share?

My girls are 7 and (nearly) 3. The older one likes playing Disney infinity on the ps3. The younger one is always copying the older one and wanted to join in.

Then I found an old controller lying about without batteries. For around six months she has sat beside her sister whenever the ps3 has been on "playing" with a broken controller excitedly telling and showing us what's she's doing.

Am I a terrible person?

Grandson is now out the incubator, still in neonatal though but making progress. He is currently 4lb 10oz. Daughter is feeding him herself though so hopefully the extra nutrients that provides will help him along.

The other week whilst the wife was off work she done up the wee mans bedroom at our house, his face was an absolute picture when he seen it! He loved it that much that he persuaded his own Mum to come visit the house from Glasgow so he can show her his room.

Sounds awkward but thankfully all the issues we've had over the years are gone and there is a nice sense of cooperation. Discussing how the wee man is getting on at school and in sports between the 3 of us was nothing we could have imagined 3 years ago when I had access stopped over Christmas on the back of me and the misses getting engaged. 

I may have lost over £2000 in legal fees, slipped into a depression and had a horrible Christmas in 2013, Birthday in 2014 (me and the wee mans a day apart) and Father's Day 2014. But we remained strong and kept in there for the wee mans sake when it would've been easier to give up. Whilst we can't forget what happened, we have to move on for the wee mans sake and the sight of me walking in the house after work on Friday to see the weans mum sitting on the couch having a coffee with my wife and the wee man running to me to give me a cuddle was a huge deal! Here's hoping it stays this way 8)

Love this picture of the wee yin. 9 1/2 years old, not quite a wee man anymore!

The two youngest grandsons are fighting the bit out at the moment. Not good for Jacksgranny's blood pressure, which is currently making her ill (headaches and nausea/vomiting). Or mine, for that matter
