We have had a roller coaster of a week. Last weekend we had the best family holiday at Center Parcs. I will be posting all about it next week.
We had a fantastic fathers day, daddy loved his apron we made him and all the cards. We had a wonderful meal out as a family. 
We explored the area of Center Parcs, the forest, the lakes/ponds, we collected loads of pinecones, rode bikes, played in the playground. It was amazing just how much fun you can have in a few days. 
On arriving home from our holiday, I received a letter from school telling me what class my twins have been placed in for starting in september. I wrote all about making a decision to have my twins placed together here. However, even though I had asked them to be placed together, they were actually going to be in separate classes! This news just made my happiness from the holiday plummet! My heart sank. Why did the school not listen to me?
The next day I spoke to the school and found out they had placed them in separate classes because they are identical and look the same! I personally don’t think this is a good reason to split twins up. If you get to know my twins you can tell them apart, surely it’s a teachers job to get to know her pupils. I do realise it will be tough for the teacher, but I believe that is preferable to my twins taking a long time to settle in because they have been separated.
After discussing this with them, they have agreed to place my twins together! Yay, I feel quite relieved, although I do also feel more pressure. Have I made the right decision as I had to push for it and go against the school’s policy. I can’t understand why no other twin parents have requested this before, I’m sure I can’t be the only one?
Now, after going through all this, I have been trying to prepare for Britmums live. I am excited and very nervous. I am pleased to be meeting up with some other great bloggers at Paddington station before hand. I am looking forward to experiencing Britmums live and learning a lot whilst making new friends.
Hence this week has been very up and down.
