The day after we brought the kids to school and went to talk with their teachers.
I went to Ellie's and Charlotte to Alex, with one twin each.

"Good morning how can I help you?" One of the janitor asks
"Hi, I have an appointment with the headmaster"
"Follow me"
I walk behind him carrying Kate in her baby carrier, and after taking two flights of stairs he knocks on the door announcing my arrival.

"Mr. Hiddleston is nice to see you again, please have a seat"
I sit down after shaking his hand
"So what is that you want to talk about?"
"My wife and I talked and decided that it's best for both of our kids to take online school from September, this because I have projects and I will need to leave the country and it's easier for us since we just got the twins and I don't want to leave my wife alone with four kids or the family in general for too long"
"Ok. First thing first congratulations for the babies" he says smiling
"Thanks"
"I am certain that the decision has been thought through and I agree with what you and your wife have decided it's best for the kids so that they won't miss out on school and quality time with their father. I must add, but I'm sure you know already, that I'm proud of how your daughter is in school, I see she works hard for every subject and I know it must have been hard for her to adjust to the new situation, moving from the US to the UK"
"She is a really hard working girl, yes" I say proudly.
He goes on telling me a few other things but then we are stopped by Kate fussing.
"Sorry"
"It's okay"
I gently pick her up and start to bounce her a bit to make her relax and then we continue to talk.
He makes me pre fill forms for next year online school and after 1 and a half hour I exit the office and walk back to the car where Charlotte is already waiting for me.

"Hey, how did it go?" I ask her
"Really good, the teacher said she's going to miss Alex but knows that it better for him"
"Same with Ellie!" I said starting the car going back home.

Once back in the house we put the babies down for a nap and sat on the sofa.
"What did you wanted to talk about baby?"
"We really need to find you and the kids dresses for the Only Lovers Left Alive premier on may 25"
"Ugh...totally forgot that! It Is in Cannes right?"
"Yep, a little bit over a month away"
"Ok...so Kate and Lukas are clear to fly cause they will be older than 4 weeks. And we need to find dresses for all of us"
"I have a tux that I never wore so I'm good. Do you think we can start to watch on the online shops and choose the dresses and suits and then go over and order them, it'll save us time since we don't have much"
"That is a great idea!" She says pecking my lips
We go in my study center and turn on my computer.

After overtop hours of scrolling we finally found the ones:

As I said to Charlotte I already have the tux. When the kids got home from school we showed them the clothes and they agreed to our choices, Ellie especially liked the green theme for the girls.

After going over homework's in the afternoon and having a nice dinner we played family games and tucked the kids in bed.
