Back to school...

.... Well, its back to school for both my daughters today. As I mentioned last year, my eldest daughter is Headgirl and in Matric this year, and so she left this morning with bags and bags of goodies for the new Grade 8 girls that are coming to the Convent and for the other new girls .... shame, she was so nervous but excited at the same time - she worked until late last night making Welcome cards for the girls, laminating them, stapling choccies on, etc. She also had to prepare speeches for today and bible readings etc...
As for my youngest daughter who is now in Grade 10 ........ great excitement to get back to school to all her friends, and her highlight - no German - which was compulsory until the end of Grade 9:)
As for myself, my exams are finally over - they were really difficult and a challenge, but now I will just have to wait patiently for results to see what subjects I can register for this year - Post Grad registration ends on April 2, so for the next few months I might even get to scrapping - my passion - which I never seem to get to. I have a Christmas album to finish and then I'm going to do Wilna's valentines class - love her work, she is so creative and talented. Her class only starts on Feb 1 so hopefully my Christmas album will be done by then.
Off to Bible Study shortly, but hoping to post tomorrow morning too
Lots of love
Helen:)
