Shameless selfie

Shot quickly as she snuggled in my lap, mid snack time after her ballet class. They've started work on their presentation pieces and on the next grade exam work. She was dancing that stuff before these recent exams but still surprised me how well she has got it.

Lovely day before ballet. She wanted to do reading eggs, so did an hour of that before reading three books. One of them she had never read and is from a set that a week ago challenged her. She got nearly all of it with no prompting. I then showed her mathseeds and she had a lot of fun doing that. I discovered that she understood concepts I didn't realise she knew! And- less surprisingly- that red, hairy, talking monkeys are very funny.

We headed downstairs for a late breakfast. I was in the lounge. She came and told me she had made breakfast and it was on the table. After breakfast, she packed her own snack for ballet. I then had a load of cutting out to do so she sat and did pictures with me, helping a little too.

Lunch time followed by a wee visit from Little F and his mummy, we like our lazy Thursdays, a bonus almost weekend day!
