Another first!


Last Wednesday Ben had his first session at preschool. He disappeared as soon as we arrived and got busy with the building bricks. He was happy to see Joe and I when we picked him up and said he had had fun. Friday went well too, so a really good start! He was thrilled about having his own bag and snack box and these have to be prised out of his hands!
Yesterday he was reluctant about being left and there were a few tears, but by all accounts he settled quickly and joined in well. Just hoping that it's a passing phase and that he will enjoy the whole thing.
I now have a whole 90 minutes (twice a week) without any boys. A luxurious time? in which, so far, I have managed to clean all the floors and go to the supermarket!
Joe's first couple of weeks at school have been good. He can never remember what he has done but according to his teacher he is performing well. No firm friends yet but that will come.
