Sometimes after a busy weekend, things go a bit pear shaped. Riley had a big day on Saturday. Which she loved every minute of. I was at my sister’s 40th birthday and she spent the whole day running around the beach house, convincing people to take her down to the beach, hitting her head on wayward bits of furniture and not napping.
So as we were heading home this morning I was not surprised that she fell asleep in the car at about 10am and didn’t wake up until 1:30 this afternoon. Still despite, that very healthy catch up sleep, she was still a little bit out of sorts. And when I failed to interpret a request this afternoon the situation quickly deterioriated into tears, high pitched screaming and all manner of unpleasantness.
Eventually, I figured it out and was able to snap her out of it by pretending to be grumpy myself. Because sometimes the only cure for a real breakdown in communication is the willingness to make an ass of myself.
