So we have been fairly busy over the last few weeks.
We have had a trip to Diggerland, Monkeyworld and have had a Day out with Thomas at the Watercress Line Steam railway.
David enjoyed watching the children enjoying themselves, and even managed to partake in as much as possible and enjoy the days out too.
We have just 2 weeks left, the kids are starting to get on my nerves now that the trips out are starting to reduce so that I can get things organised to go back to school. Why oh why can't they...

Well today has been spent packing to go away to give my daughter a bit of time with me and my son a bit of time to do normal 17yr old things, thankfully he is a sensible lad whom has given me so much love and support over the past weeks but I know he needs a bit of time for his own emotions. My daughter 11yrs is struggling with the loss so some time to sit on the beach sand in the sandwiches will help us both talk about her feelings in neutral grounds.
Although I know going away for the weekend...
