Another weekend down – some snippets 

{driving} Saturday was one child in next town for 8am for first aid training, then next child there for 10 for computers. Headed back to do the shopping and got a text saying we had a poorly Tigerboy.

{nursing} and washing the next order of the day then. He’s got another cough, and pretty much every time he does that, he coughs himself sick. He’s also very anti showers at the moment, so that complicated the clean up somewhat.

{spotting} signs of Spring. Found this rather fabulous snowdrop in the garden.

{trying} to get to grips with how fast life is flying by. Teen has a countable number of days until her first GCSE maths exam – school sent home some bizarre list for me to sign off what she’s entered for, so we spent part of this evening setting up a project management system for her to manage everything.

Made me think of this country song.

Snapshots

Big has passed her 2 star first aid this weekend. Small is now able to do a Rubik’s cube in under 2 minutes. Smallest has lost her first tooth (did I already record that here) and Tigerboy is still small, but developing well and obviously bright according to his developmental check last week.
