'A' level results...
Today is a significant day in the lives of all 'A' level students and their parents in the UK
By happy coincidence the post has just arrived here, and with it my eldest sprog's letter from her Inn of Court inviting her to the Trinity Call when she will be received into the Inn as a Barrister.
It hardly seems seven years since I accompanied this same sprog to her highly academic girls' school to open the dreaded envelope and read the results of too much partying, and too little studying.
Suffice it to say, she left in tears in the full and certain knowledge that she would not be going to the university of her choice.
Yes, it's taken her seven years to grind back the lost ground, but all I'm saying is- if you want something enough, go out there and get it and don't give up ever, until you have achieved whatever it is you're aiming for...
The power to change our lives is inside us all, girls. (however well hidden it may appear to be from time to time!!)
Love to you all, and happy reading!
