Unpleasant morning

Today is one of those mornings when i am not feeling very up to work. Peter was not so happy at drop-off, and it took me a while to give him to the teacher (Not too long ago, there were some mornings that he just walked away from me happily as soon as we went into the class). While he was whining in my arms, Yaya, quite unusally, began to rub her teary eyes and clung to my back. Later she told me she did not know why she cried, she was a little better after I held her for a couple minutes.

On my way to work, I began to question myself why. It does not seem right to me--the whole family being cranky. Lei was sort of impatient and very easily to get irritated, and I myself, was a little tired from everything that is going on, therefore was not in a good mood either. The only reason I can think of is that i have been extremly occupied by work for the past 10 days. At the same time i being tired, maybe each one of them felt being somewhat neglected?
