Summer daze

The kids will be back to school next week so we're enjoying the last days of the holidays. It's been great to spend some quality time with them and get away to our second home in Cyprus.

It's always such a busy time before the kids go back, but as Emily is Emily she has been prepared for months! She's so organised so she always takes charge of things like their uniform, clubs and stationery. Princess got her mock GCSE results last week and she was pleased with how they went and will now be getting ready for the real thing next year. What I love is that I don't have to tell her to do her homework, she really seems to want to work hard and to get great results. I've said the same thing to her that I said to Junior and that's if she puts in 100% effort for her exams then I don't mind what her grades are.
