Mother's Day was lovely. Boiled egg and soilders in bed - who could ask for more. In the week leading up to Mother's Day I often made a detour to a local shop who had run a mother's day portrait competition. The pictures always made me smile. What smiley mummies we have herabouts.
We are well and truly in holiday mode now. The end of term was to be honest completely exhausting. This was the first year I'd had two schools worth of sports day, concerts, parents evenings and the rest. Both schools seemed to have lots going on at the end of term and that combined with being ill made it all very hard work. I usually try to make something simple and handmade for the teachers but this year it simply wasn't possible. But every cloud has a silver lining and it meant that I found these beautiful mugs from a great charity called ARTHOUSE Meath.
I did manage at least to make personalized cards for the teachers. A good lesson not to leave things to the last minute.
Do teachers drink green tea? By the end of term some of them look in need of something a little stronger.
