Home-Start Christmas party

Customary Santa photo!

At the @homestartsutton Christmas party with Santa this afternoon. Everyone so warm, so friendly, so fun. Coraline loved it, and began swaying to the music as soon as we walked in.

We've been so lucky to have had home visiting volunteers through Home-Start since Coraline was four months old (once a week for two hours). We have had two in succession, Christine and Tracy, and built up great relationships with both. They come and play with Coraline, which is great for her (when we couldn’t get out to baby groups due to keeping her well) and great for me to “get stuff done”. That time is so valuable.

It's our last Home-Start session tomorrow with Christine, as next year we will be able to take Coraline out and about fully to groups and be more flexible. We are so appreciative of Home-Start and what they do. I hope that I might have the time to volunteer for them myself in the future, doing what Christine and Tracy have done for us. The party was awesome. We got a teddybear and a cupcake on the way out. #thankyou #homestart#santa
