I have had both Toby and Clover 'helping' in the garden @Snowie Clover likes to get super close like Toby so no matter what direction I turn, there is a fur baby there LOL.

I have a grade 1 again this year. I met them at the end of last term and they are all so small - they do grow fast though at that age. I can't believe there is only one week to go before we go back. The kids are only at school in the first week for the Thursday and Friday, then it is a public holiday the Monday of the second week so they are four days. I think it is great for the younger kids especially to ease back into school over the first 2 weeks. I am looking forward to having a new group of kids but also really, really do not want to leave my fur babies - it has been so lovely spending so much time with them.
