Yep, they finish up school this week and then don’t go back until 30/31 January. Year 6 is the end of Primary school (probably your elementary??) and in our case that means a change of schools as the primary and high school are on separate campuses.

My three year old just loves pairing gum boots with tutus. I can’t be bothered arguing the point just now but for a graduation ceremony…

Our Christmas preparations are done, so looking forward to a relaxed time hanging out with the family.

Yep, it’s a tough job but somebody has to do it.

Don’t you love when you go to so much work and it all turns into an emotion rollercoaster at the dinner table? Enjoy your day.

The holiday house sounds like a great idea.

I admire your stamina! But it has to be done, doesn’t it? As Woody Allen famously said, “80% of success is showing up” 🙂 x
