Now I remember the downside to Christmas

The downside to Christmas is that it means that school is starting in about a week.

This is bad news not only for children, but also for the parents of school-going kids. Nigel begins Primary 1 next year, and although it sound fun and exciting, I really wish he was still in kindergarten where the garden is full of flowers, the playground beckons and homework is something that you just try your best to finish.

Oh well, no use grumbling about things. Here we go trying to enjoy our last week of freedom and make the best of the fun times!
