Right this minute I’ve a bone to pick with the phrase:
“you can’t pour from an empty cup”
some of us the cup has a slow leak & no amount of warm baths, deep breaths & mindfulness is going to decently patch it.
We just keep going because no one else has the tools or impetus give us a break.

School photo day. It’s my last chance to get a sibling photo done.
This year I was brave enough to order one, the school promised to do their best supporting R & a camera shy N.
Whatever we get back I will cherish it forever.

For the first time ever Nina and the school staff have a pretty extensive behaviour plan.
While Ns TAs & I were in the meeting. She got to hang out with the principal. they had a great time. I might’ve giggled when apparently Nina told Miss G “I’m not vibing with my school mum I need my home mum”
