Oh December. A month that should have been full of sparkle and social events turned out to be just as full of disappointment and cancelled plans as any other month of this year. However, we made the most of it. We all enjoyed alternative festive traditions and celebrations at school and made the most of the opportunities to see family where we could, eat all the cheese and lie in as much as possible. Whilst Covid stole most of our festive traditions and did what it could to dampen our spirits, and cause us stress and worry – we still had a lovely Christmas. The kids were as excited as ever and were super grateful for their gifts.
