Seriously happy stuff

Anna smashed her first term exams.

One of Carl’s lovely suppliers sent us the most insane hamper so now our fridge and cupboards look properly festive stuffed with random items that pretty much never make it into the weekly shop.

And this evening I helped to run refreshments at Jackson’s school Winter Concert and see him open the show with my godson Cameron. And drink mulled wine and eat mince pies. But the very best bit (that so nearly brought me to tears in an embarrassing way that he would have killed me for) was watching him lark about with his mates as they joined in the singing of festive songs at the end. You know, like a teenager at school. It feels like such a huge milestone.

Oh, and it’s my dad’s birthday.
