Maybe, Just Maybe....

Maybe, just maybe, we're all ok again. Aidan seems to have made a reasonable recovery, which is great. I felt better today than I had in a fortnight. And no one else seems to have picked up any of the bugs. So hopefully, touch wood, we aren't going to get any more illness in the run up to Christmas.

Things have been going on around me which I haven't recognised as well as I should have. Ethan had his swimming carnival yesterday. He did really well, winning the majority of his races. He even had a freestyle race where he had to swim a lap of the 25 metre pool. He normally wouldn't swim that far, and apart from swimming at school, he isn't getting swimming lessons. However, he did it without any problems, being only just beaten out at the finish by a kid who gets 3 lessons a week! Maybe we have the next superfish in the family!

Both Ethan and Aidan are about to come into their last week of school for the year. That means we're seeing most of their school work for the year as it comes home. This includes paintings, drawings, sculptures and school diaries. It is fantastic to see how each of them has progressed during the year. It is Anth who keeps a handle on the homework, and I know with her help the kids have definitely had an edge in their school work. All in all, great work by both of them.

Ciao for Now, Academically Proud Angry Dad.
