Indeed the perception of a 9 year old niece of who's time is being invested seems interesting.

I just can't believe it.

Oh my God, I did have like 25 extra days of holidays to spend!!! from last year?!?!?! that how busy sometimes we are... but this time I am going on holidays.

Something I didn't realize is how to plan holidays when you have a baby, not that it is limited but it is demanding to plan it, let's face it, nappies, facilities to change him, sleep times, visits to places, travel times, feeding times... amazingly hard.

Seems to me one of those things you realize when you get older is that you no longer can go on holidays on a camping, first is the 3 start hotel minimum, now is the 4 starts minimum and I am starting to see the 5 starts coming very soon.

Expensive thing to get older.

Seems we are loosing the battle by not taking it seriously. God protect us.

What can I say... just read it and cry.

This is actually a copy of a real photograph, and as an outsider it is really fun, so let's give thanks to the original image (lost the link).
