Back to school

This morning, the back-to-school feeling arrived with a vengeance. Complete with last minute panics over uniform, school bags and lunches. And now that James is starting secondary school we have to be out even earlier in a morning.

What you haven't seen though is the complete tantrum thrown by Sophie moments before she calmed down enough to pose for this photo - a hissy fit, a meltdown, a temper the like of which hasn't been seen before (not since the last one anyway).

But we got to school on time, and so the routine really begins.
