Thanks, I needed that.
It has been a long week. On Sunday, I had a one day cold that left me on Monday to have a week-long (nasty) affair with Markus; it knocked him flat for two days, and now it stalks him at work. He isn't sleeping well or much, so neither am I. The weather has been so weird that it is (adversely) affecting the mood of just about everyone we know. Ellie is experimenting with attitude (think "PMS" to get the scope). Today, her freak-out started while the big hand was still on the 5, which as you probably know by now is against my religion. By 6am, I gave up all hope of a bit more rest and dragged myself to the kitchen for a cuppa. When I opened my email, Meghan had sent me the skinny on NPR Tiny Desk Concerts, along with this link. New, mellow music mixed with the cuppa to remedy today's shaky start. That's much better! Thank you, Meghan!

I can sympathise on the attitude bit... Amelia seems to be a moody teenager sometimes... really sulky and cross. Luckily the only person who she doesn't fall out with is Matty - he's very sweet and takes toys to her while she's sulking :)
it's only happened a couple of times but v weird to see my usually happy little girl acting like that... We're sooo hoping it's a short phase....
I'm glad the video helped you relax! I get so moved by music I listen to these videos over and over again anytime I do tedious work (which lately has been relatively frequently). The way Jim White combines the music with the stories is amazing. I want to visit the cuppy coff just because of his story! Well, that and I love cheese grits...
