They grow up too quick Joy <3

Yes, you're right Fly.

At one time I was going to three different schools' nativities but now only one and they have all stuck to the typical school nativity play but all differently depicted, eg punk-style, worldwide celebratory ones -even granddaughter's school and she attends the school with the most diverse nationalities in the North East. Lovely to say that all the kids joined in too. Often her teachers used various languages (including sign language) and customs in the school play but everything worked around the typical nativity as we know it. Never been to a disappointing Christmas play at any of the three schools I'm pleased to say. :-). There are some creative teachers and assistants around.

At one time I was dutifully going to regular schools' Carol Services too, but now only one.

I'll make the most of it while it lasts as they grow up so quickly. <3

Hi Fly <3 I daren't tell Barb that my hubby's pal has had his tree up for at least a couple of weeks. He's blaming his wife for loving Xmas. Also, yesterday, on the way back home we saw two houses with Xmas wreaths on front doors and one house with pretend snowflakes all over the big front window.

Don't ya just love it :-D

All together now ...

It's the most wonderful time of the year ..... :-D :-D :-D
