Another Reaction-free Term
Well another preschool term has come and gone, without a hitch. What a relief. The world always seems a better place however, when the kids are at home for the holidays. There is nothing I like more than to have the kids at home all day where I can keep an eye on them myself. I think it is the security of feeling in ‘control’ of our day and the possible outcomes. I use the term ‘control’ loosely!!
I do seem to be an exception to the norm when it comes to school holidays. Over the top of all the mumbles and groans of ‘yeah, school holidays….what are we going to do with them for two weeks?’, and ‘the kids drive me crazy over the holidays’ I want to shout, “this is the best time of the school year!!”. For me anyway, I am not so sure Declan feels the same way. He is confident going off to preschool and playing with his mates. I never want to discourage that. Fortunately I don’t need to worry endlessly where my son attends preschool, in fact I don’t need to worry much at all. But, there is always that little part of you that wonders if everything will be all right today.
