I never thought I'd say this, but I don't want the school holidays to end

I'm usually ready to sleep for a month when the school holidays come to a close, but this year I wish they were a bit longer - nobody is more shocked by this than me.

At the start of the long school break, I wrote about how I'd be attempting to embrace the joyful moments of the school holidays. I was divided on the success I'd have with this unusual level of positivity to be honest - I was more trying to manifest these elusive moments into fruition than firmly believe they'd really happen.
