This week my Word of the Week is:
Lovely seems such a boring word to describe our week but it has been a lovely week.
On Saturday it was lovely spending time with Becky, just the two of us....Ellie was at rehearsals for the school play....We didn't do much apart from watch YouTube videos but she is good company....Well she was when she eventually got out of bed. hehehe
I had the best Mother's Day and was spoilt rotten....The gifts and cards were lovely but what was even better was that the kids were on their best behaviour and helped my fella do all the housework....I didn't have to lift a finger all day.
On Monday I had a chat with Ellie's head teacher. She is so supportive. More things are being put in place to help Ellie and the head teacher is adamant that someone needs to observe Ellie in school before they make a final decision about whether she has autism or not....
Tuesday was show day! About 5 primary schools in the area and the secondary school put on a show each year and Ellie is in the choir....This year it was Beauty & the Beast. She has been practising the songs and I imagined the choir would just be sat at the side of the stage like last time....I was so wrong.
They were walking around the stage as villagers, stood with glasses of beer in the Gaston song and coming on and off the stage in other songs....It was brilliant. All the primary kids played more of a part in the show compared to last year and they sang their little hearts out.....The secondary school pupils were brilliant as the main characters especially the girl who played Belle and the boy who played the beast...I cried at the end. lol It was so lovely!
The rest of the week has been lovely too....Stu worked a double shift so he earned himself an extra day off work. He had Wednesday and Thursday off this week. We didn't do much but it was lovely having him home just for the company.
This weekend I am hoping for a nice, quiet one. There is no excitement of Mother's day and play rehearsals but I do have a couple of blog reviews to write...I am hoping for some sunshine so I can take some photos. It's so dark in here at the moment, even with all the lights on.
Lovely sounds like the perfect word for your week. I was spoilt on Mother's day too, it's lovely when you are made a fuss of isn't it. It's great to hear that Ellie's play went so well, I always cry at the school productions x
ReplyDeleteI think lovely is a lovely word for the week! And yours does sound so lovely, a wonderful Mothers Day and the show sounds fab. I'm sure I'd have cried, too! x Thanks for sharing with #WotW
ReplyDeleteThat's wonderful :). I hope everything continues to be as lovely as possible.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you have had such a lovely week. Well done to Ellie on taking part in Beauty and the Beast - it sounds like she did really well. Being spoilt on Mothers' Day is always nice. Glad to hear that Ellie's head teacher is so supportive when it comes to helping her at school and trying to assess her for autism. Hope you have a lovely weekend x #WotW

LOVELY- always one of my favourite words - onwards and upwards
ReplyDeleteI think the word 'lovely' sums up your week perfectly. It's always wonderful to watch your children in performances. #WoTW
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you have had a great week
ReplyDeleteLovely is such a underrated word (although that comes from someone who uses it a lot - haha!), and it sounds like it perfectly sums up your week. #WotW
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like the play was fantastic and youtube can be a bit of a rabbit hole #WotW
ReplyDeleteAh I love school plays such lovely memories. I am so glad the head teacher is supporting you it sounds like she is in your corner x
