omelette maker
it's a big week for us in this house. As my son goes back today, tomorrow is my last day with my girly before she starts high school tomorrow. I expect today will involve both last-minute labelling of shiny protactors and lots of snuggles. It's the dog's official birthday too, moved this year to a more convenient day as the kids weren't here at the weekend when it actually was. The dog probably hasn't noticed we've not celebrated it yet. And I am also back at work so my daughter will come with me to run a group. She's a big help. I was commenting the other day to someone asking after my "little ones" that sad as I am that she's no longer little, she can do stuff now that is marvellous. I can't make omelettes, they usually turn out like scrambled egg. But my daughter makes them brilliantly. So I've swapped my baby for an omelette maker. Fair deal really...

Joe's now home having left his lunchbox behind, and both are engrossed in the TV - life resumes as normal then...
ReplyDeleteOddly I've been way more emotional today about what feels like the ending of my little girl's girlhood, than I did on her last day of primary school. I think it's cos over the Summer I've heard warnings issued from parents about how "once she's at high school..." and I'm just scared that I'm about to lose my snuggly girly. Of course I do know that we're all changing all the time and can't hold onto what was, but keep looking for the joy in that what is. We've both done alright so far, so how can it be anything other than just fine?
