Mum-of-22 Sue Radford fights jet lag as she goes through children’s school gear for new term
SUE Radford has revealed she’s fighting a heavy case of jet lag by preparing her kids for the new school term.
The 48-year-old, her husband Noel, 52, and their brood have been enjoying a lavish holiday in Miami, Florida, for the past three weeks.
And after arriving back home on 6 September, the pair have been settling back into their usual routine.
But with the five hour time difference, this has been a challenging feat to undertake for the mum.
Taking to her social media account to complain about it, Sue said: “Powering through the urge to fall asleep by sorting the kids stationary out”.
Alongside this, she shared a clip showing off all the stationary she’d collected for her kids, including three black pencil cases, two Avengers-themed ones, two Barbie-themed cases and a Frozen-themed case too.
She also had three geometry cases, pencil sharpeners, cases of highlighters, pens, and food-shaped erasers.
Sue shared a second clip with all her kids’ grey and red school uniforms neatly folded out with their black shoes sitting on top.
“All ready for back to school and nursery tomorrow,” she wrote over this with a heart eyes emoji.
It’s back to reality for the Radfords after splashing out on their dream holiday in the US, which was their 18th in just 20 months.
During their time across the pond they had lots of highs and lows, including a trip to Universal Studios and several trips to the emergency room.
They also went to the Magic Kingdom Theme Park, Gatorland and enjoyed several days by the pool.
Not to mention the incredible sight of not one but two SpaceX launches, which Sue mistook for a meteorite.
It’s believed that they spent roughly £18k on their flights abroad, while the villa they stayed in is thought to have set them back £5k.
And with our rough breakdown on all the other parts of their time abroad, we estimate they could have spent around £45,522 in total… Find out how here.
Sue and Noel are parents to Chris, 34, Sophie, 29, Chloe, 28, Jack, 26, Daniel, 24, Luke, 22, Millie, 21, Katie, 20, James, 19, Ellie, 18, Aimee, 17, Josh, 16, Max, 14, Tillie, 13, Oscar, 11, Casper, 10, Hallie, eight, Phoebe, seven, Archie, five, Bonnie, four, and Heidie, three.
