At least the rain is good for something......

I know that I have moaned constantly about the endless rain we have been having (yes, it was still raining today ~ the sun made a brief appearance ~ before hiding again behind a BIG black cloud!!) BUT ~ it has obviously been good for some things ~ as when I checked today ~ the carrots are starting to grow (well ~ there are green things growing and hopefully they are the carrots and not some stray weeds hee hee!!!)........


Look very carefully and closely and you will see some green bits in the pot ~ that is HOPEFULLY the carrots starting to grow!!!!! (Thank goodness for that ~ the children would be so upset if nothing happened!!)



I am actually quite grateful (in a strange kind of way!!) ~ that it has rained so much ~ because I had completely forgotten to water the carrot seeds and they would probably never have grown ~ without the endless non stop rain!!!!

Daniel and Lauren have a non ~ uniform day at school tomorrow ~ they have to take a bottle (of some description ~ whether it is wine, bubble bath or tomato sauce ~ and then they are allowed to wear their own clothes!!) ~ they also have to take a plate of cakes ~ for the school fair ~ which is on Saturday ~ as I am such a disorganised mother and completely forgot to make cakes ~ I am going to cheat and send in some that I bought (I know I know ~ but I never said I was the mother of the year!!!!!). The fair on Saturday is to raise funds for a new adventure play area in the infant playground (which is Laurens part of the school), and there is £2000 needed to complete the project ~ so it would be really nice if that was raised at the weekend!!
We will be going to the fair on Saturday (to give our support!!) ~ after the usual round of dance classes and show rehearsals!! I will make sure that I take plenty of photos ~ and please pray for a sunny day for us ~ just the one will do!!!
