You can’t really see it in the photo, but we just hsd our first snow flurry!
Huge, great flakes fell for a few minutes, but it was not in their fate to settle… The ground was far too wet from all the rain!
A shame as Lil Man has a special training session, where possible sponsors, the local council, and the press, are attending.
And no, despite the atrocious weather, it’s not been cancelled!
Happy Saturday Peeps!
Too cute!

This particular meme came up on my Facebook today, and it couldn’t have been more appropriate!
We had parents evening, you know that time we probably all dreaded as children, not knowing what those teachers would tell our parents. And now we are the parent, dreading what the teacher will say about our child!
Well, I have to say, I couldn’t be more proud today. Lil Man is coming on in leaps and bounds, and this year, yet again, another teacher tells me how his smiling face is a joy to have around, and how he is really doing well, no worries!
Lil Princess got just as great feedback! She is creative, has a wonderful imagination, but tends to daydream… Both need more times tables practice, but I hold my hands up, I was rubbish at them too, in fact I can’t remember them even now!!!
But the best little snippet? Lil Princess’s teacher telling me she is always talking about her brother! And not telling tales, or negative stuff. Her teacher said she is so proud of her big brother, and comes up to her everyday with something or another to tell her, staring with “My brother…”
I was amazed! The amount they fight and argue at home, you would never guess there was that affection there, but …… How sweet!!!
We Created Monsters!!!
