Hannah is in ‘real’ school now, and a big girl. She’s in a combined group, with both year 3 and 4, as she’s so clever that she already knows how to read and write and do sums. In this class, they will be offered more interesting and complicated material, to keep them happy and motivated.
Here’s Hannah’s new stash:

And mommy who is happy she has at least one more small child at home…

We’re back from our holiday to Drenthe, where we stayed in a caravan at campsite De Kremmer in Gasselte for 2 weeks. The weather was glorious, we only had 2 rain showers the entire time… No piccies of us sunbathing, even though we did enough of it… It was a great combo of enjoying nature, exploring new towns and cities, and relaxing on the beach! We could write a lengthy post to tell you all about it, but as one picture can say a thousand words, here’s a few thousand words in pictures… 39,000 words, to be exact… Enjoy!
