Back to school

Today marks the end of Christmas school holidays and heralds back to school (kindy) for Zara and playgroup for Max. Christmas holidays were only a couple of weeks - the long holiday is over summer: June to August. This means school routines are back on for everyone. All rise early, breakfast, make lunches, get dressed, change nappy (Max), make hair pretty, brush teeth, fill water bottles, organise jackets/gloves/beanies/boots. Zara and Tanja leave at 7am, then Max and I go by bike at 8.30am. School holidays seemed to go fairly quickly all things considered. A bunch of public holidays (and therefore having Mum home) helped. Even taking into account that it was so cold and therefore limiting "outside" activities, the kids got along quite well and didn't drive me completely mad. I'm sure that will come by mid August after a 10 week break.
