There's only one direction!

After an amazing summer holidays the girls will be going back to school next week. I genuinely believe they have had the best time but now the grind of a new school year will begin. The next week brings new challenges for both them. Anna dives into year one and a new teacher - probably head first and with no fear, although she has developed a recent trepidation for new things. Lucy begins her first term at Junior School and I just can't believe or fathom I am a parent to a child who is nearly eight. It is a cliché, but whoever 'they' are, 'they' are so right - time flies by and you just can't stop it. I have spent so much more time with the girls in the last eight weeks and it has been pure magic and some lovely times to treasure. Next stop - half term and Amy and Lucy's birthdays and a planned visit to Harry Potter World....
