December 1st...

...let the Christmas photos begin!
I was up and out for my portraits shoot, but unfortunately the weather was too bad (outdoor images) so we've had to rearrange. One of the team was unwell anyway, so I'd have had to go back to photograph them anyway. 
The kids were compliant and let me take a pic of them in Christmas gear. They were delighted to be able to open the long awaited box from James and Rich...inside was a Lego advent calendar for Nate and a precious stones one for Asha! So kind!
Asha has a sleepover tonight with 3 girls from her class - she's so looking forward to it. They've got plans to make cheesecake, watch Harry Potter etc... I'm really pleased for her that the friendships are growing.
I met a friend early evening for a catch up. She has a lot going on in her life at the moment, so it was good to just sit and listen. 

Today I'm grateful for;
1) Reading Luke 1 with a few others. So loved reading their thoughts and comments. 
2) James and Rich's kindness. And later in the day WhatsApp videos going back and forth between us.
3) Tasty leftover sweet and sour chicken for tea.
