I went to university full time when small person was 3, so had to find a day nursery for her. The first day I took her, they opened the door, she ran in, waved over her shoulder and disappeared. I was left on the doorstep feeling totally bereft and almost in tears. The staff rounded her up, she gave me the biggest hug and disappeared again. I spent the entire day worrying that she was OK, feeling like part of me was lost, so I couldn’t really concentrate on anything. ‘Tis a horrible feeling.
After a week or so, it became clear that she was perfectly happy there, looked forward to going each day but was equally happy to see me each afternoon when I collected her. She still talks about the place with great fondness.

Life will get into a routine, the kids will be perfectly happy and you will settle knowing they are being looked after well, having a good time. Good luck with the house hunting (what a chore!) and just remember - the weekend is but a short hop, skip and a jump away (((((Jax))))))

Enjoyed catching up with your blog this evening. Sounds like you’ve all been very busy but mainly good busy. Nice that you’ve found such a good part time school/nursery.

Good luck with the house viewing- the school arrangement sounds good, except for the commute

Kris, how about if I swap you a fiesta for a truck?

Alison, not sure how the whole thing with Big is going to work, not sure whether they are up for flexi-schooling at elementary level, so not sure where it’s going to go in January.

We’re viewing a house at the weekend.

I’m glad it has been so positive.
and much crapness to the radio - mind you, they mention lofthouse interchange every day!

Does sound good
Presumably Big would only be in the Children’s House till January anyway (you said 3-5), so a couple of months together might be a nice transition?

The driving sounds ever more horrendous though - still, good incentive to sort the house out and move!
