Living Arrows 2018 52/53

Welcome back to another week of Living Arrows hosted by Donna over at What The Redhead Said. If you are new to this then the name of the linky comes from the poem by Kahlil Gibran "You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth"

Its Christmas Eve and it is also the second to last Living Arrows post of 2018! I feel so proud that I have stuck to this Linky every week! Ok its not always made it up on a Monday but it has always gone up! 

So this week the boys are now on holiday from school and playgroup! James is so exhausted from a busy term at school! He has literally not stopped and has worked so hard this term! Since he started Beavers back in September his confidence has gone through the roof! On a morning at school he will run off with his friends to play and I won't see him again until the TA comes to open the door to let them in!! In the last week of term it was pretty busy! James had his Key Stage One Nativity, a Christmas fun day, the whole school carol service at our local church and also a school talent show! By the end of the week he was exhausted!

Freddie has had a brilliant time at playgroup this term! The two sessions a week have really helped him become more independent and he is so happy to be away from me when he is there! He has made some lovely little friends and from January he will be with the little brother of one of James friends on his two morning sessions! In his last week of term he had a trip with mummy to see Santa at a local shopping centre! We met at his playgroup at just before 9am to get the bus across with some of his little friends! There is a Blogmas post coming up on his reaction! And lets say it was not too good!

 Then on the last day of term he had a Christmas Party with some of his little friends! The playgroup had assigned each child to one of the party slots and Freddie was in the 0830 slot! This was good practice for us for January when he has two 0830 start sessions! He also got picked up by Nana and Gaga on Wednesday as mummy had to be at the church for James school carol service and I didn't want to have to rush down from the church to collect Freddie and then hang around to get James. Freddie also had a party on Thursday morning with Sure Start, His last time going there before he starts his 15 hours!
