Life has been busy. I also feel that I have had nothing to write.
We have just returned from a fab 8 days on the Costa Blanca. Emily and Joel wore sunhats and sun screen instead of woolly hats and waterproofs!
Jamie starts his new role at school on Monday. Head of Maths... we hope that goes well for him and his peers.
Emily was refused a place at our local Church of England School. We are 4 streets out of catchment but really want her to have the foundation of a faith based school. We are now in the process of the Appeals process. Apparently only 28% of appeals are successful! We will find out next Wednesday where we are on the waiting list of 31 children! ( that is more than another class!) Then the appeals panel meet in June, however some of the dates are when I am in Belfast to hopefully meet my new niece! I kinda feel that this situation is a bit of a pain in the neck!
Joel is well, he has officially finished Infatrini now and is just on cows milk. His medicine continues until our next cardio appointment. He is walking and running with the added ability of stopping! His love of all things bouncy and spherical continues. He is learning to say sorry as he likes to blow raspberries and hit out when he cannot have or do something. Thankfully we are not at the stage of reins but the naughty step is used frequently!
As for me... busy reading a wierd kids book called Tunnels, packed away our Easter Tree today and planted the potatoes in the veggie patch. As I said not a lot to say!
We are well, enjoying the last few days before the busy summer term packed with exams and transition.
Jamie is running the Manchester 10KM to raise funds for Emily's Nursery and Joel's Opportunity Group. If you would like to help, check out... www.justgiving.com/jamiemcculloch.
