Nearly a month!!!!

It's nearly been a month since my last post. So sorry all! between each of us getting sick individually time seems to have flown.

A big thank you to everyone who contacted me inthe weeks prior to school hols to make sure I was all prepared for H this time round (see very first post). All seems to be going well. And he put his head under the water at swimming. Very proud mummy!

In the mean time I did get some cards made for a variety of different things happening in our lives.

A lot of work would have gone into this.

I use the Colour wheel alot to try and get out of using the same colours all the time.
