MERRY CHRISTMAS
Hope you all have a wonderful time.

I thought I would get around to posting more than I have, but never mind.
It seems like weeks since we were all fit and healthy - I think I started it, then the kids, then Ian. While the kids were ill, Ian and I had to take turns staying at home. I say this because today when I picked Matthew up from school, I was told he has spent most of the afternoon with his head on his desk burning up. Why they didn't just phone me to come and collect him I don't know. So we will have to wait and see how he is in the morning.
Both the children are doing great - between illnesses. Matthew has stopped going to Beavers, as he said it was to boring. I have to admit from what he told us of it I don't blame him. Piano lessons are going great although the practice at home isn't so good. He's excellent in lessons, listens, plays well. But at home if we ask him to practice, things quite often get nasty. He says he wants to continue to have lessons but with no practice at home. Don't get me wrong by 'practice' I mean 10-15 mins at most per night. We both want him to continue as he is getting very good and we have talked with his teacher about his first exam. I was shocked when she mentioned it - I think in my head that was years off. School's going well - Matthew has been involved in the school newsletter. The first edition is due after Christmas. He seems happy and settled and I don't think we can ask for much more than that.
Heather...where do I start. She is a normal 3 year old with SOOOOO much energy! She is thoroughly enjoying nursery, becoming more confident and grown up each day. At the moment she's getting very excited about Christmas, I love this age. When Ian got the tree down from the loft (or attic-whatever you want to call it) she ran over to the box and hugged and kissed it. I think she may actually pop before Christmas. We had snow, I loved it. Then it all went just as quick as it came. I have almost finished my Christmas shopping just a few more gifts to get. I love Christmas I get very excited the nearer it gets.
Ian is fine. I don't generally get soppy on here, but lately I really appreciate him. I thank the Lord each day for finding him. I have heard, read, been told about so many marriages, partnerships and couples going their own ways that I stopped and thought how good things are between us. If there's a problem we talk - we're there for each other. Sometimes I don't think I could have gone on without him being there for me this last year. Thank you Hun.
As for Me, I'm fine. Work is OK. Mum and Dad are doing well, managing to keep it together. I actually think having Kate and Thomas there with them has helped them.
Finally, here are some pics of the snow, and some of the kids being mad as usual.
Take care.
