Happy birthday Mum. Miss you and Dad so very much ❤️

[Mrs G @TeacherTrees]

Our Story - David Attenborough at the Natural History Museum. Just amazing ❤️

[Mrs G @TeacherTrees]

So proud of my youngest - graduated with an MSci (Hons) in Genetics ❤️

[Mrs G @TeacherTrees]

Officially have an empty nest. Youngest has been away at uni for the last 4 years but been back for the holidays - he has now graduated and is currently on his way to his new flat far too many miles away for my liking. That is all 4 flown the nest now. Weird feeling 🥺

Happy birthday Dad. Miss you ❤️

[Mrs G @TeacherTrees]

The best company on the dog walk tonight ❤️

[Mrs G @TeacherTrees]

Very apt present today from my husband on our 35th wedding anniversary (coral anniversary) ❤️

[Mrs G @TeacherTrees]

Just got back from seeing this - it is incredible, emotional, devastating and hopeful all at once 🐟🐬

[Mrs G @TeacherTrees]

I have read literally hundreds of books - but I always come back to this one. My absolute favourite ❤️

[Mrs G @TeacherTrees]

One of my strongest childhood memories is using this china at tea time on Sundays even when my sisters and I were still very young. I love how my parents didn’t hide it away for just the adults to use ‘for best’. Brings back wonderful memories of my mum and dad ❤️

[Mrs G @TeacherTrees]

Dog walk with my favourite small person today ❤️

[Mrs G @TeacherTrees]

First Mother’s Day without you, Mum. Hope you found Dad and you are together again. Miss you both so much ❤️

Retirement not looking too hopeful at the moment: Pension from previous career is proving illusive (trying to track down who currently administers it), and now all the online pension statements from my current job have vanished. Slightly concerned...

[Mrs G @TeacherTrees]

Heading off into the sunset together ❤️ Favourite part of the day 🐕‍🦺

[Mrs G @TeacherTrees]

Love how excited my class get when it is their turn for a teeny tiny duck from the advent calendar! They are even naming them - my current favourites are Rah and Henry IX 🐥🐤

[Mrs G @TeacherTrees]

You know it is going to be a long train journey when we are packed in like sardines and a man has just announced he is a magician. And yes, he has just got a pack of cards out…. 😩

[Mrs G @TeacherTrees]

I always tell the class not to tip their chairs or they will fall off and hurt themselves. They still tip yet never fall. I inexplicably fell off my own chair tonight while sitting properly marking books. Now crawling around the house feeling ridiculously sorry for myself 😩

[Mrs G @TeacherTrees]

Just found myself inadvertently giving a ‘teacher look’ to a group of really loud/possibly drunk adults on this train. To be fair, it did actually work and they are being very quiet now… 😳

[Mrs G @TeacherTrees]

@corrielb Thank you so much, that is such a lovely thing to say! I know that Katie will make an incredible teacher, and to be honest she would make a success of any career she entered 😁 ps how is she so grown up now!

@TeacherTrees Katie and I still talk fondly about her time in your class and how wonderful you were when I was working in Amsterdam - you truly inspired her choices for year 10 and her aim to become a primary school teacher #perfectteacher
