Our Day

Mr Messy arranged to work from home today, so that I wouldn't be on my own on the first day without Little Miss Sensible. That was very thoughtful of him and he earned lots of Brownie points :-) Little Prince had the morning off school as they were having school photographs, and he can't participate in those due to security issues. With all his other issues around school at the moment, I didn't think him going into class and then not being able to join in with what his friends were doing would do him any good. I half expected a phone call from the staff to check where he was, but they must have (surprisingly!!) remembered the reason he wasn't there. I took him up to school for the end of the lunch break, I'm still refusing to let him be 'looked after' by the insensitive dinner lady!! His class were still in the playground, so we chatted in the car until the whistle was blown, then he ran into school to join his friends lining up :-) He didn't even need me to walk him to class, he was happy to be left at the gate, which is such an achievement for him, and I am so VERY PROUD :-)

Mr Messy collected Drama Teen from school, as she likes to have a lift when its possible. Usually as she and Little Prince finish school at the same time in schools miles apart, she has to just get the bus, its nice to be able to pamper her a bit when we can :-) Fraulein said she had a good day at college and was back to her silly self, I'm glad she is feeling happier as I was getting worried about her this weekend!

After Little Prince had gone to bed we all watched a couple of episodes of Child of Our Times we had on Sky+ I find it fascinating watching how the children have developed and changed over the past 6 years. Its like the programme that was on years ago Seven Up - I loved that too :-)
