Busy, Busy, Busy

We have deadlines coming out of our ears, orders piled up all over the floor and desks, and at last count 12 boxes of stock to unpack. It's a little hectic here, to say the least.

Emily has been an absolute star today. Right from the moment she got up she launched into writing a Tudor story, called "When Anne Boleyn Met Shakespeare - A Tale of Two Hearts". She spent most of the morning perched up on her bed tickling Merlin with one hand and writing with the other. She's up to about page 5 now, and wants to illustrate it all when she's finished. Haven't seen it yet, but apparently it's about a secret passion!

She's also spent hours in the garden with Jon, watching the birds, playing endless games and evidently looking like a large purple flower to the butterfly which landed on her head and spent several minutes there!

That's about all for now; looking forward to Monday when deadlines have passed and we can get some normality back.
