My almost 17 yo is complaining that the holidays have been tooooooo long. But she finished at the beginning of December last year and still has another week or so before she starts back. Me? I think they've been just right :) lol! My almost 17 yo is complaining that the holidays have been tooooooo long.

Guess it will really let me know who my real soul mates are and arent!!! Alas the 2011 school year is about to start.. and we shall see how they go in term one when the reports arrive!!! AM not holding my breathe though!!! We can pray though for these kiddies... the ones easy to love and the ones harder to love.. that they find their passion and follow their dreams!! PErhaps next week we may get some ME time .. Alleluia!!

Now people say did you have a nice holiday? and I say what holiday? Because I only take off a few days a few times a year. Sorry to hear you've been ill, but your 5 day beach break sounds like it was terrific fun. When I was a kid summer holidays went on FOREVER.

We're aware that, at eleven, Sapphire is growing quickly and the opportunities to hang around with each other before the terrible teens kick in and we're deemed too uncool is just around the corner. It's been brilliant and I'll miss her terribly when she goes back to school next week. I'll miss LC too - it's been nice having leisurely breakfasts together instead of knowing that he's long-departed for work by the time I'm awake.
