Tuesday

I was so disappointed that the last piece of dossier paperwork didn't arrive in the post this morning :-( I was convinced it was going to arrive!! Oh well, fingers crossed for Wednesday!!
After dropping Little Prince off at school I sped off (well drove very carefully as it was extremely icy) to pick up some more Christmas presents I'd ordered and were now in stock. I did a bit of grocery shopping too while I was out, although I managed to forget most of the urgent bits - that'll teach me to take my list with me!! I foolishly drove back home via the country lanes, which don't get gritted and had to crawl most of the way as it was so slippery. Just outside our village I came across a group of cars trying to help someone who had slid into the ditch at the side of the road - very scary!! Luckily I made it home safely and promised myself I'll always use the main roads in weather like that!!
I had just enough time to hide all my Christmas bits and pieces, before setting off up to school to see Little Prince perform in his Christmas Play. It wasn't a traditional Nativity, it was a story about Father Christmas, the Elves and some Polar Bears! Little Prince was a toy, and dressed up in Drama Teen's old Winnie the Pooh outfit and looked like a gorgeous cuddly bear :-) I arrived quite early and managed to get a front row seat, and was sat right in front of Little Prince's place on the stage :-) I got some great video of him dancing and singing his little heart out :-) He wasn't sat near a teacher and he still managed to sit still and quietly and behaved really well, I am so proud of him :-)
