It's almost mid year, that means parent teacher interview time. Parents rejoice the moment that note comes home with the little box checked, interview required - yes. Yeah right.

It’s official. My children have robbed me of my sanity.
Every morning so far this holidays I've been woken up to the sounds of children fighting, actually more than just fighting - full on screaming, toy boxes being tipped over, fridge stripped of food (they break every lock I've bought), Georgie screeching at whoever has dared touch something she is holding (glass cracking screech), Lucy voicing...
