So Halloween was a week ago and I still can't get the bairns out of their Halloween costumes. Plus they're high on sugar. So I have two screaming dragons chasing each other throughout the house. I should just drop them off at the reserve and be done with it I think.

So, not to be a pest but... any word on when I can come into practice? The fall classic is soon, and I probably should start working with the team.

Will you think less of me if I admit I'm fucking terrified?

	I find kids far more entertaining when they've got a bit of spark. Then, not a parent, so. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You'll appreciate quiet time when you do. For the moment, you can just give them back after they are riled up. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	One of many reasons to not rush into it. We're both OK with handing them back, for now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Perfect babysitters. And I didn't rush in either. I was 32 when I was got pregnant with Fergus. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	My other half's nieces and nephews refer to me as their calm uncle. I presume that's a positive. Sounds a pretty decent time for it. How many d'you have? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It is. The wee ones smell fear. Just the two. Fergus is 6 now, and Rhonna just turned 3. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	One more thing to add to the mental "good to know for future reference" file. Fun ages. Do they know what their ma's up to? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Glad to help! Nope... they have a no idea. That's going to be a surprise. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Admittedly, it was never an especially extensive file... (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Well, with any luck, they'll be excited about seeing their Ma do what she was known for before she became their Ma. It's be exciting for them, hopefully. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I hope so. We take them to most matches anyway so I guess the main difference will be their Ma playing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ah, bless em. It'll be a bit different, that's for sure. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Going to get some good babysitters so I don't have to be concerned! Or as concerned. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Definitely helpful... (Reply to this) (Parent)
