      Little Miss Busy hadn’t always been so busy. She used to enjoy lie-ins, lazy Sundays and leisurely all-night raves.

      But then she had kids.

      Now Little Miss Busy endures 5am wake-up calls, manic Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, and watching enough children’s TV to send her stark raving mad.

      It was another busy day and Little Miss Busy did what she did every morning: mainlined six cups of coffee and started writing her to-do list.

      1. Write list 2. Make nutritious breakfast 3. Make kids eat nutritious breakfast 4. Swap nutritious breakfast for Choccy Yummy Pops 5. Tell kids to feed guinea pig 6. Tell kids to finish homework 7. Wake up husband 8. Tell kids guinea pig will die if not fed 9. Shake husband until he wakes up 10. Finish kids’ homework 11. Feed nutritious breakfast to guinea pig

      Little Miss Busy ticked everything off her list, and herded the children out of the door. She felt very pleased. ‘Mum! I have to dress up as a Tudor tomorrow,’ said the youngest child.

      12. Make Tudor costume
