Here I am again, only a few days since I wrote my last Living Arrows post! I can’t believe we’re on week 48 already, and that it’s December tomorrow! Despite the fact we’ve hardly done anything except work and school for the last few months it seems to have gone by very quickly.

We have so far resisted putting our Christmas tree up – that will be a job for next weekend. We did put the outside lights up yesterday though, and the wreath on the door so things look festive from the outside at least!

Last week the boys wrote their letters to Father Christmas too (although Toby told me he doesn’t think Father Christmas is real anymore – he has been sworn to secrecy though!) On Saturday we walked to the post box and posted them in what has now become a yearly tradition. We always send them to the Royal Mail address so the boys will get a reply in a few weeks.

I’ll be back next week – hopefully with some festive Christmas Tree pictures!

This is my ninth year taking part in this linky celebrating childhood, based on a poem by Kahlil Gibran, “You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth” .
