Time wasting

What with a house renovation (which I admit, has made me mildly obsessed with pinterest) and three boys to cook for and clean up after, you might think I could be forgiven for passing up on the chance to rough and tumble with them on the mattress in the living room (the mattress that is passing for our bed). But my eldest put it succinctly: 'Mum, why are you wasting your time not playing with us?' Point taken.
