Oh how I could laugh in the face of “how will they ever learn to socialise?” Our feet are not touching the ground for a moment, so busy are we hurtling from one social or sporting occasion to another. Just call us taxi drivers, quite frankly. Amelie had a lovely few days with her friend […]
The home ed bits.
Life, aside from being extremely busy, is very peaceful here, back into the rhythm we all find comfortable and comforting.

I’m so far behind on the day to day life around here that I don’t think I can remember. Maddy went on her PGL holiday and loved it. I wasn’t really worried about her going, though it didn’t feel very long after all our traumas. She was very pleased to be going and came home […]
