If you have the power, and if it’s not too much trouble, please ensure I wake up tomorrow morning feeling miraculously better.

Please get rid of all this vomiting and the exhaustion and the dizziness. Let me get out of bed without feeling as if I’m going to pass out.

Please let the school/nursery run pass without a hitch. Can the children be angelic? Can Jesse forget how to throw a tantrum? Let him not mind when I brush his teeth/comb his hair/strap him into the buggy.

Please could Izzy dress herself quickly and without whinging? In fact, I’d love it if she seemed positively enthusiastic about the prospect of school.

Let her not spill breakfast on her uniform. Let her forgo any requests for a complicated hairstyle that requires multiple clips, bands or plaits.

Please could there be enough time for me to have 2 cups of tea and a bowl of (still warm) porridge. If I could actually eat this sitting down that would be great too.

Please let the Mr kiss me goodbye before he leaves for Cornwall and please let there be a decent mobile signal where he’s staying so he can call me and tell me he loves me, just when I need to hear it the most.

Let the bus to uni arrive on time. Let there be a seat for me. Let Jesse not scream all the way to nursery.

Please make me be productive at the library tomorrow. Let me not be afraid of the presentation I have to give next Monday. Let me find all the answers and the questions to go with them too.

It would be wonderful if I had enough energy to get through the day, to collect the children, to come home and cook dinner. It would be great if they went to bed peacefully and full of smiles.

If you fix it so that the kitchen and dining room cleaned up after themselves that would be fabulous.

Oh, and if you managed to do something with the dirty laundry I’d be ever so grateful.

Thank you, in anticipation,
