But it&#8217;s a season for springtime festivals after the darkness and hibernation of the winter months, so perhaps I&#8217;m not too late after all. My children certainly don&#8217;t seem to mind that we made Easter goodies after the event!

Although it&#8217;s bad news for housework, I love being able to spend the extra time with them all, especially while they&#8217;re so young. School holidays also provide a welcome break for me from the early morning shoe-hunts and last-minute rushes to the school gates.
