I thought I would share my "special" day. Perhaps you will get a laugh.

We have had a frustrating morning to start with after I got no sleep again. DD1's ability to keep track of her toys and/or put them away so I know where they are is horrid. After dealing with that all morning, on top of her wanting to play with me while DD2 wants to eat and needs to be burped, DD1 asks for an orange.

A whole orange.

I misunderstand and think she wants the entire orange.

I tell her she's in luck, we have one orange left.

I peel the orange and start to section it when DD1 loses it because she wanted it whole.

I apologize to her, and tell her half of the orange is still intact, but that was not enough. She has now thrown herself face down on the floor and is screaming because she wants a whole orange.

I taped the orange back together. Oh yes, you read it right, I taped it back together and gave it to her to eat. And she did. At least it was scotch tape and not duct tape.

And, it was only 10:30am.
