Spring has nearly sprung - we hope

It has been a long, grey, wet, cold winter. The snow on Easter Sunday was followed by a little more the Sunday before last. The kids had a chance to build a snowman, and play outside. Sam and Em arrived at church to a snowball fight with the youth - nope they didn't look tidy for church! We have woken up today to our 2nd sunny day in a row. Although more rain is forecast later in the week, I'm hoping that we have turned the corner. The daffodils are almost done, and tulips have taken their place. Baby squirrels are bounding through the trees, and the extremely fat pigeons in our back yard can hardly fly after a winter of eating from the fallen guinea pig food! Speaking of turning the corner, I'm almost 14 weeks and am hoping that soon I will be feeling better. The older children have all been so helpful, but I'm looking forward to taking some of the load back! Sophie is now starting to chatter away, at home anyway. She's still not convinced that she can also talk outside the family! She will say Hi and Bye to others, but that's about it. The older children are all working hard with school as we plan to take 3 weeks off in June to visit Italy with friends. So they have worked right through the current 2 week school holiday, and will do the same for half term at the end of May. This way they still get a summer break in July-August. They will still need to work the last week in June, and 1-2 weeks in July to finish up the year. I'm so looking forward to the next school year without a house move - a baby is so easy in comparison! Both Emily and Sam passed their recent music exams, and Melissa blitzed her grade 5 theory which had been hanging over her head for a while! We have finally received the drawings for the conversion of our garage to Roger's office, and hope that it will soon be underway. He's currently in what will be the dining room, and is right now a office/dumping ground. It would be wonderful to have it done before the baby comes, and during nicer weather. I think that's about all of our news for today!
