half term holiday catch up

I dont feel like i get to do many of the things i like to do much at the moment. I am spending a lot of time working -no not physically teaching but working all the same. Preparing lessons, resources, marking - oh my goodness the marking and all in all i am not accumplishing much at all i feel. If i manage a healthy meal on the table then i feel i have done something. Whether the girls eat it or not is something esle. I really should stop beating myself up about things. No one is perfect its the thought process you go through that is important. Letting them know that no one is more important than them to me.

I dont get to post on here as much as i would like. I am either too tired at the end of the day when i think "thats enough work for today" or when i do post i am quick and to the point because my train of thorugh is about 5 seconds long with little people running around.

so anyway here are a few things we have been doing recently and photos i just had to share.

runner bean seeds harvested and ready for next year

Heart pulling moments making me wish things were different
