SCHOOL HOLIDAYS!!!!!!!

I love the school holidays........

Yes I know I've said that before, but I do!!!!!!!!!!

No more up and at em......no more school lunches and early teas because there is school the next day....noooooooooo

Instead, lazy mornings of gardening and sitting on veranda drinking coffee, barbies for tea late..

Summer lazy holidays.........

Now don't get the wrong idea

that I lead a charmed life, because there will also be

yelling, threatening, yelling, tantrums (from the children as well) yelling and to finish of more yelling. Yes we all get a bit ratty at times, but that is life living in a Family.

Children fight, mum yells, children make HUGE mess mum yells a bit more but do you know what? I love school holidays........

I feel sad when I her women say how they dread or hate the school holidays,

I have to wonder are these women selfish or may be they forget what it was like to be a child and have fun.

I say relax go with the flow enjoy your children these holidays.

I am so glad that last week is behind me , what a busy full week.

May-be not as bad as some ones week though.

Here are photos of my two youngest getting there awards, isn't prep son above just so darn cute and small, O.K O.K I cried when my baby walked on stage, nearly forgot to take the photo.

Grade 5 son got the sportsman award. Sums him right up he loves his sports and is one of those boys that is good at any sports. He's like his big brother, would rather be kicking a ball than behind a desk. They get that from there Mother.

I have been tagged by Linda and Nicole. Thank you for this and next week I will

get to them. I would like to say hello to new readers, thank you for your comments

that you leave. I am enjoying going to your blogs and getting to know you...

O my! I just have to tell you this.....

See those Innocent looking boys of mine above...well they have just walked out in war paint

with their home made weapons. Their weapons of choice. Empty pens with pin board tacks in them..

I sat them down and calmly explained the dangers of this weapon. I then decided I needed to demonstrate. I blew through that pen and would you believe it the tack stuck into my tongue and groove wall. COOL says 10 year old.........

There's more.

Explained that it could do alot of damage if they shot one another or worse they could lose an eye. 5 year old looks at me and removes sunglasses he is wearing, and those big blue eyes are full of tears and he says to me..........

But Mum that's why I'm wearing the glasses...........

The Holidays have begun........................
