I feel that very much with my own son, who is 33 now. The shadow of his childhood self stands just behind him for me and every time we see him, which is often, I get a little start of thrilling surprise at what an entirely adult and lovely man he is.Elizabeth Musgravehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09473705107636868753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-78920016100804854772014-12-02T06:36:08.649-08:002014-12-02T06:36:08.649-08:00Thanks for all your comments -- please excuse that...Thanks for all your comments -- please excuse that I'm not individualizing responses.

I too have some marking and planning waiting to be dealt with but I have just treated myself to preparing dried fruits and nuts for Christmas cake baking whilst listening to old episodes of Sherlock Holmes on the radio. Here in England the Christmas frenzy has begun far too early and I prefer to ignore it until a more fitting time. But - sugar, spice, nuts and dried fruit. Quite medieval!anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09784336429060492455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-87685229541462492072014-11-29T08:42:12.375-08:002014-11-29T08:42:12.375-08:00Back again after two weeks without internet nor te...Back again after two weeks without internet nor telephone. I really missed your blog! <br />Just finished my first batch of Christmas cookies, there are more to come, and quite a lot of grading waiting in the wings. These weekends running up to the holidays are good practive for keeping your priorities straight, I find. Apparently, you are doing the right thing this weekend. Enjoy!Eleonorenoreply@blogger.com
