Spot on, my friend. It’s a bittersweet moment, that is for sure. Sounds like a great school though.

Who’s that skinny guy with hair holding Amy?

It’s funny how you’ll put off writing about something until the perfect conditions are met. In my case, anyway, those conditions never seem to arrive. Best of luck with the transition.

Morticia – She’s going to have a great time at school. It’s us I worry about.

ImPerceptible – I’ve shed a couple of tears about it I must be honest. But i’m just about coming to terms with it now.

Rattling the Kettle – I’m not sure. But I think it’d be a close call. And to think I used to consider myself fat back then.

(un)relaxeddad – I’ve just joined Morris Anonymous

Steve – We are very lucky with the school. If it had been a grotty one then i don’t think i’d have coped.

It’s that time of year. Oliver starts nursery next week. I already had a mopey moment tonight on Hayley’s shoulder. What a wimp! But it really is a wrench in so many ways. Haven’t managed to face blogging about it yet.

Hope it all went well today and that she settles right in. Sounds an idyllic school.

I hear you. Dudelet starts reception tomorrow, dudelette’s place at the childminder was set up last week – it’s all too, too fast…You really should break the Morris dancing habit, though.

Serious question: as a percentage of weight in that photo, who has gained more weight in the years that passed since the photo was taken?

(OK, not at all serious.)

On my oldests first day of Kindergarten there was only a thin thread of self control keeping me from running after the bus and getting my baby back. Then I started crying and some of the other moms started crying. Older moms stood there and nodded knowingly. It was a mess. She’s heading to Middle School tommorrow and I hope I do OK. I’m not sure about it, but then I think of a day free from pre-teen hormonal outburst and I think I’m good. But, we’ll see.

Best wishes to Amy!

I hope she has a fab time on her first day at school and comes home excited abour going back the next day.

On the plus side she’ll get to learn lots of rude-ish rhymes and silly jokes to share with you too.

Rol – It may well be, but thanks for not mentioning it by name. I’m pretty happy with the school, it’s just the whole “my children are growing up” thing i’m uncomfortable with.
