Don't say...schools out !
Finished school today (not me, sadly) and Leesy arranged a single-handed break-up party for them all (with friends) at the pool...no other parents...just Leesy and Ivy on crowd-control, entertainment and hospitality - which...(even in the short time that I turned up) included :
1. cuhh-razzzy mothers talking about their entire life-stories in one breathe,
2. pizza covered with flies,
3. unexpected but welcomed catch ups with old friends,
4. chats about 2009 class placements and associated dramas,
5. little boys who brought money and bought nothing for themselves,
6. real-life snakes that E. stood on,
7. fathers explaining unapologetcially that they were late to pick up their kids owing to their very own traffic infringments.
