It is a school bus morning today. I prepare a simple breakfast and get Stormy dressed and her hair brushed before bundling her down to the bus stop. No fuss. No chaos. No problem.
I wake Stormy up this morning by stuffing a polar bear inside her pajamas. She giggles for a moment. Then she realises what I’ve done and tell’s me to stop it. She tries to roll over and go back the sleep, but “Irving”…
As much as I’ve enjoyed our ToastBox breakfasts this week, it’s back on the school bus for Stormy today. We have gotten out of the routine and so we nearly miss it. The bus has already arrived as we get to the bus stop. Stormy…

I must admit that I actually prefer it this way. After the call, she’s incredibly well behaved and is even ready to leave for the school bus before I am. I know…
This early morning Stormy seems to be becoming a habit. She decides to come out and join me for my 6am video conference. She’s well behaved and I think everyone appreciates the brief interruption. After the call I cook up some porridge for breakfast and then bundle her off to the bus. As I lift her into the bus…
