The first day of my career as an artist…Daycare Day 1.
Posted by Caroline Valpied on
All parents are going to relate to this one…it’s the night before the big day, in our case DAYCARE DAY 1! Who wakes up at midnight and then DOES NOT GO TO SLEEP FOR 3 HOURS??? It was a perfect storm of bin night, husband on school camp and anxious mother. Finally, I gave up and snuggled the little darling into my bed (reality – baby eventually falls asleep sideways and I cling to the edge of the bed waking up with a jolt every so often to check he hasn’t crawled off the side).
Fast forward a few long hours and we get up and get to daycare. Unlike most parents (I’ve been led to believe) I had actually been looking forward to daycare. I imagined long, blissful, coffee-fuelled hours of painting, carefree in the knowledge my sweet child was loving life playing with new friends and toys. This is what actually happened…
We arrive and while I’m waffling to an educator about ideal naptimes, Sal has pinched another child’s yogurt pouch and squirted it all over the floor. I rush to clear it up and sort of tell him off while saying a fumbled goodbye, rushing out the door before I burst into tears…but I hear him burst into tears before the room door even swings shut and it’s TERRIBLE!
At home I listlessly shove a load of paint at the canvas, hate it, call the daycare centre (newsflash: Sal has been, “A little upset,” a.k.a. in floods of tears, like I couldn’t have guessed that, call back in an hour). So what do I do? I do what any sensible person would do. I go to bed. Apart from when I rang to call daycare (again) to check on Sal, I slept until 12.30pm. Then I called again, and then one more time, then I went and got him.
My first day as a working artist felt like a total failure, but if there’s one thing I’ve learnt as a mother over the past year, it’s to not be too hard on myself. I had unrealistic expectations – I was probably never going to whip up a masterpiece in a couple of hours on three hours sleep while my baby made lifelong besties. First day of daycare was tough for both Sal and I, but it was a baby step in the right direction. I will still conquer the art world and my baby WILL love daycare – watch this space!

Hey guys, I am Chailal Klahan. I was skeptical at first but after reading so many reviews I had to give “Jeanson James Ancheta wizard” a try. Mind you, I was burned by two others who claimed to help. Jeanson James Ancheta wizard helped remove my information from the darkweb and also fixed my credit score. The student loans, eviction, collections and charge offs were removed and my FICO score increased to 790 average. West also helped to recover about $78k worth of BTC I lost via a romance scam. Jeanson James Ancheta wizard is reliable and honest; I promised to let the world know about Jeanson James Ancheta wizard, perhaps this 5 star review. Please note I wasn’t in any way paid to write this review.Contact him on email:(jeansonjamesanchetawizard62@gmail.com) or WhatsApp number: +447529524472.

I was convinced to invest here by a friend I met on Instagram, Her name was Ruth (now I know she could be anyone online working with scammers). At first, everything was good until I requested a withdrawal, that’s when the nightmare started… I had to put in more funds before I could withdraw. Then came the unending taxes; I was fined and taxed for various reasons which I complied with until I was tired of everything and I noticed it was a scam then began to look for a solution to get all I had spent back. Since all the payments I made were through crypto, my local Police could not do anything to help. Luckily I finally found Lord Hacker Ultimate Digital Assets Recovery Agency through the Google search engine online. I contacted them through their hotline and I finally got help from this authority. Wonderfully, after providing all the details required by them, it took them barely 4 to 5 hours to trace and retrieve my lost funds/Crypto.

My name is Rylee, I would love to share some good news about my newly found hacker treasure, EXNER PRO HACKER. Thank you for saving my resources from fraudsters. When everyone is talking about hackers, most don’t speak about the hacker’s credibility which most people come to learn a little bit late. In terms of charges for all the requirements, the duration of the whole process, convenience and efficiency that the hacker shows. These are vital qualities that a good hacker should really have if you ask me. I would have saved myself a lot of hustle while working with most of my previous hackers. Most of them lacked these qualities, up until I met EXNER PRO HACKER. He made the process bearable and worth my while. Most importantly, he got me back my funds to the last cent, $601,000 lost on Bitcoin. They are 100% resourceful as I can attest from the service they offered me. I have shared my experience with my dad so that he can get help recovering his long-lost wallet password. Thank you so much. Below is their email:email: Exnerprohacker@protonmail.com
