From the HBs to all of you. Happy New Year. May it be filled with adventures, dancing, and happiness.

Look like I’ve had an electric shock! (Daughter tried out the crimper)

Oh the questionable Santa photo which comes out every year…/

First public piano performance: 👏👏👏

Love a craft underpressure. Why do schools come up with a million “optional” (but it doesn’t feel that way) activities before the end of term.

Well this is a rather nice way to spend a Wednesday. Salts Mill.

Terrifying Christmas display.

Punctuated trying to plan Christmas shows, outings, health appointments, school obligations, family, and getting work organised by having a clear, cold walk down by the Lilly Ponds.

9 months grows a baby and also grows the team I am lucky to lead.

*Job news* Daughter (yr3) filled in her first job application at the weekend to be a “reading ambassador” and today found out she got the job. As a “book” filled house we are so proud of her. She’s so happy and excited about her role and I hope her enthusiasm is always encouraged.

A blue sky kind of day for exploring an alternative to X!
