Home safe and sound :-)

Well I've been home for almost a week, but wanted to spend time with my family and get my thoughts together a bit before posting.

Little Prince coped extremely well with our separation, although he has been extra clingy and a bit wild since I've returned! Thank you Post Lady for pointing out that I must be a bad influence on him, as he is fine when I'm not here!!! Mr Messy and LMS think that being in his usual routine, and at school each day helped Little Prince cope enormously and they are probably right. His teacher was so understanding, letting him have a picture of his new sibling and another of him and me together pinned up by his table, and making sure the other staff knew to be extra nurturing with him while I was away.

I am really proud of the way the whole family coped without me :-) I returned to a lovely tidy(including Drama Teen's bedroom!!!) and clean house, with the washing all taken care of. I returned to a fairly calm Little Prince who had lots to tell me about what he'd been doing. I returned to a pair of sisters who had argued but not killed each other!! Well done everyone - you all did great :-)
