Millie started crying and I realised how late it was so I had to jump up and try and wake Dominic who had slept through his alarm and insisted that it was saturday,and so it went on,oh,you know how it is?the same for all us mothers.

• 米莉开始哭闹，我知道已经很晚了，我强迫自己爬起来，尽力地叫醒多米尼克，他的闹钟也未吵醒他，并且他坚持认为今天是星期六。于是事情就发生了。你知道这是怎么回事，所有的母亲都曾有过这种情况。
