Advent

The countdown to Christmas has begun. I love this time of year. Work is on the downhill run and so is the treadmill of the kids activities. Hannah has finished her regular dance concert and the one for people with disabilities. She was fab and we all enjoyed cheering her on. She's also been enjoying her swimming - she is swimming every day at school at the moment and while packing fresh swimmers and towel each day is a pain - she loves it.

10 proved to be a bit of a milestone birthday. Double digits and growing independence suits my monsters. Kit had a mnecraft party and Hannah a sushi party. Both were lovely.

Kit is still dancing. His ballet concert is coming up soon. Last night he and I went to see The Nutcracker Ballet at the Opera House - a wonderful night - to quote Kit - "it was awesome!"
