Introducing......

Finally in a moment of rare peace, I have made it back to my blog!  With now only two weeks left until the school term finishes, it has been a roller coaster of end of term concerts, meetings for up and coming guide camps, visits to new schools for both the oldest and youngest, school trips plus fitting in my normal working hours.  Frankly I am exhausted!  So please excuse my absence and lack of commenting on your lovely blogs - normal service should be resumed shortly I hope.


Anyway the reason I popped back was to introduce you to a new member of the family. Please say hello to Fred!

Last weekend we went to a local church fete as my oldest was performing with her dance school.  Daddy and the youngest thought it would be a great idea to guess the name of the teddy and guess what we won!  As you can imagine I am overjoyed to welcome Fred into the family to join the seven build a bears we currently have plus two shelves of soft toys  in the youngest bedroom.


This bear is seriously large and heavy but the youngest loves him.  And so on Friday he had to visit school.  So if on your Friday morning journey, you saw a very wet women carrying a huge bear who was dressed in a floral raincoat - that was me.  Oh the joys of parenthood.
