It's Today!

Finally, the day has arrived - the last day of school as we know it!

From here forward I will be officially homeschooling my two daughters. What an exciting privillege. We are all looking forward to this adventure before us. The road will be long, at times will seem tiring but all good things are worth it in the end.

We have done the end of year concerts and the school Christmas Parties (the last was this morning for Jaina). Caitlyn, has been off school for 2 days due to sun stroke and a bad case of sunburn - due to the survival day they had on Wednesday. She just went in this morning to say goodbye to friends - one is moving back to Sudan - then came home with a big smile and Christmas presents under her arm from them.

Next on the list is getting out the Christmas music and decorating the tree. What fun!!

Aaaah, Back to School!

Well, it is the end of another holiday break and it is back to school tommorow. Shoes are polished and bags are packed, ready to start the last term of the year.

We have started the countdown and there are now 8 weeks / 57 days to the end of school and I just know they are going to go in a flash. With exam prep, school concerts and all the buzz that goes with preparing for the Christmas holidays, we will look again and it is over.

We are all looking forward to starting home school next year. It is a new adventure and an exciting one too.

Well, my girls are fed and bathed and in bed, on time! Wow, we didn't manage that once during the holidays.

Let's have a breather and a cup of tea and plan for what lies ahead.
