Tired kids = Meltdown

It's been a busy, exciting weekend. Claire and Aeron having been missing naps and getting to bed late.

As I write, they are having a full-on "come apart". There is wailing, Wagnerian screaming, red-faced screeches, irrational demands, etc.

"WHERE IS GRA-MAW?!?"

"I DON'T WANT FOOTIE PAJAMAS!!!"

"IT'S NOT NIGHT TIME!!!"

"I WANT DADDY TO PUT MY JAMMIES ON!!!"

Then they got to the gasping stage.

"I want....I want...a...a....SNACK!"

"I'm firsty.....firsty for......MILK!!!"

Mama plans to administer warm milk, a couple of short books and some cuddles. Then it's lights out for little girls and cocktail hour for Mama and Daddy.
