2014 Week 49 Day 2 – Twinkle came back. Yey. And phew!! Not only that, but as well as writing her own reply to the children, (amazingly received the night before and featured in yesterday’s post (!!!???), she also bought with her some lights for the tree! We had been waiting for some as last […]
2014 Week 49 Day 1 – A friend came today after school, who doesn’t believe in Father Christmas ( I know!!!!), and immediately touched Twinkle!! A collective gasp, an ‘Oi’ from me and floods of tears from the little ones made him realise what a terrible error he had made. He felt bad and agreed […]
2014 Week 48 Day 7 – I couldn’t resist when she found this hat and put it on!!Last night the kids named their elf Twinke. Alexei had wanted ‘Sparkle’ which I thought was lovely, but Barnaby refused, I think purely as it was Alexei’s choice. I explained that in order for the elf to have her […]

Merry Christmas from the Radziwill’s here in England. Father christmas is about to arrive, so we have tidied up and are off to bed.
The week before Christmas is obviously taken up with wrapping presents and writing cards. It is inevitable that there is a breakage along the way! Sorry Alexei’s godmother. Oops. Hope the others got to their destination safely! I also had an opportunity to take some photos of my husband posing for a book he has […]
