Paper Bag Books...

...yep the last 48hrs has consisted of Paper Bag Books and not much else. They're the gifts for the teachers this year and boy was it hard work just getting the kids to write 3 things that they thank the teacher for. After a year you'd have thought it would be easy.

Megan was great as usual, wrote them straight out and had no trouble when I asked her to redo 2 in the red colour pen instead. Carys just said she couldn't think of anything as school was rubbish...ho hum. Lewis just didn't want to write - as usual, does it for the teachers but not when mum asks. Anyway finally got them all written even if not willingly this evening and I've spent a good 3 hours finishing them all off and putting them together - sorry to the class room assistant who I'm afraid won't get the same special gift but I couldn't take any more, I'm shattered. Off for a long soak in the tub in a minute to recover.

The kids break up tomorrow and I just can't wait.....lazy days coming right up. Hubby has even offered to nip to the shop in the morning to get me and Katherine some lovely grots to see us through our last day together for a while. Now that I will miss, but having the kids home is great fun too. It's amazing how much easier the day is without spending over an hour doing school runs each day.

Right off for my soak, catch all you lovely people later.
