Wednesday (#3)

Watched this last night.  Like The Tree of Life, it really moved me.



I have a lot to say in connection with this, but need to mull over my thoughts/feelings a little.  This monologue has a lot to do with it though... Javier Bardem was beautiful in this role.

Latest Maggie pics.  I really need to print some photographs...

Wednesday

The school post... Audrey on her first day of kindergarten!

 

 

 

She is not too keen to be left at school and asks me when, like preschool, she will start having a day at home. :(

Even though technically she had only done the same number of days as her usual preschool week, I was missing her yesterday.   I may have even shed a tear or two myself.  However, I am really looking forward to seeing her really flourish this year.

And yesterday I picked a beaming Nicholas up from school.  he was very excited to see his friends and exclaimed that he had had a brilliant day and that he loved his teacher!  Which I am happy about because I am over the moon with who he got.

 

 

 



Letter to Nicholas

You are now 8 1/2 years old.  You are growing up so much and I am realising that there is a difference between being 5 and being 8!  I love that you explore your own interests, that you share information about the things you love.  We take joy in talking to you about those things and giving you the lead in the discussions.
Audrey was at nan's yesterday and you had to go to the dentist. You were scared, but very brave.  We did some shopping and you voluntarily held my hand as we walked through the shopping centre.  I loved that.
You start year 3 this year - I look forward to seeing you grow and develop.  xo
