A great day at Nursery

Emily was the VIP today. She came home so proud. She also made a wish at bedtime for her special friend (Hannah, the one with flowers on her shoes, not glasses) to come for tea as they are twins! It looks like she is settling well, it's amazing how quickly loyalty comes and how much of a sheep our daughter is. She came home to announce that sausages, mash and gravy are her favourite. This is a girl who has always told us that she doesn't like sausages or potatoes and when I have tried her with gravy (once calling it chocolate sauce) she still wouldn't try it! But Hannah likes sausages, mash and gravy so now does Emily. Let's hope she doesn't always go with the crowd!
The school day stories have begun. One pic of Joel... he found the water on top of the sand pit whilst I was hanging up the washing! Needless to say I needed to do more washing after this escapade.

8th Sept

Emily started Nursery School on Tuesday. She had a great time. Little does she know that she now will be in some sort of school until she is 18! She has been back since and still likes it, so all seems positive. It is very strange to be on the other side of school, working round timetables and structures, trying to get there on time to pick her up, labelling clothes, reading letters and getting involved.

On another note, Jamie celebrated his birthday on Tuesday complete with peanut butter pie for a cake! Yum. Happy Birthday J.

Birthday Pics

Just the long awaited birthday party photos.

This time last year Joel was in hospital really quite unwell. Today not only is it great that he is better than he was last year, but we get to celebrate Jamie's birthday together as last year it got swamped. So happy birthday Jamie. (Hope you enjoyed peanut butter pie)

Emily started nursery school today. One hug for Daddy and Joel and then off she went to have a great time. The beginning of formal education. She will only be in it for the next 15 years!!!! She looked small in the school uniform but she loved having a school bag. I wonder how long that will last?!
