I've been in your situation so big hugs!

Personally, I'd get I there first about Xmas...text and offer boxing day as the kids will be jet lagged (before he asks for Xmas day) and if he starts then tough! Boxing day or after or nothing!

As far as the letter goes I took one but never got asked for it but glad I had it with me...I googled a template for it.

It's great you gave people fir your food shop. If your making dinner at home on Xmas day cheat and make it easier buy in advance where u can, blanch and freeze!

It's gonna be stressful on the lead up! I've decided to write a date list with tasks and stick to it...dontvover do it like me or it becomes very over whelming!

You will get there and imagine how proud of what you've achieved you will be! Xxx
