Is it ok to admit that I am still not feeling very organised for Christmas? I still have cards to write and post, presents to buy and then wrap, tidying and cleaning and a list of what I need to get for Christmas dinner! I feel so behind compared to previous years and all my good intentions for this week did not happen! Still there is time and I will get there.
So this week was a busy last one of school for Burton and Jenson, with Burton’s winter performances, parties, school christmas dinner, christmas jumper day etc.. it is no wonder the time has flown past.
Here is a look back:
Sunday
A long walk taking photos for Burton’s school project
Monday
Writing up his project – having to draw a map of where we walked yesterday with photos and drawings.
Tuesday
Burton playing Bert, the chimney sweep, in his class’s musical rendition of Mary Poppins
Wednesday
Jenson wearing no uniform for for Christmas dinner day at school
Thursday
Burton was awarded a certificate for all his hard work in the school play – he ended up taking on 2 roles plus his own to cover children who were off sick. Everyone was very complimentary of his performances and we were very proud of him 🙂
Friday
Christmas jumper day
Saturday (actually taken on Friday – whoops!)
Visiting Father Christmas after school as a reward for such great achievements from both of them this week (e.g.. Burton going up a stage in swimming, both boys going up grades in aikido, Jenson getting his silver star badge and a super speller badge, Burton getting his special badge for his hard work in the play).

Completely fine to admit not organized for Christmas… At least I hope so because I’m still there too 😉 Many congratulations to your boys. Those are some great achievements!
