I softened

First I was tired and cross, wanting the bed time toothbrushing to be done quickly so I could then go off to bed.

Then I was tired and cross, being told to watch a programme while H delayed. I sat on a bit of duvet with a cold hot water bottle under it, that made me jump and giggle.

Finally I was engaged and enjoying the programme and was rewarded as it happens by seeing H doing his teeth.
