¡¡ʎǝuɹnoɾ s,ǝpuolqǝǝzʇıp - same old, same old!

Oh dear it's a difficult time for littlies. I remember my eldest being difficult each time he changed school. Oh hang on, no....he was just plain difficult! You may find she's better once the holidays have started. Maybe try not mentioning school again for a few weeks and get on with enjoying the summer. I really do think that too much preparing them is as bad as not preparing them at all. The schools seem to make such a big deal of it Why make such a drama out of something that everyone has done? You don't see the entire country going around traumatised do you lol.
 
morning beautiful. I hope today is a better one for you x
 
Thinking of you sweetheart xxx :hug99:

Hi linzi - hope today going well. Forgot to say there is a really good series of books that have helped me a lot - they are "your x year old" by louise ames. On amazon and often very cheap (1p) plus shipping. They talk about normal development and changes at each age. Aparently my daughter even when horrible is completely normal:D. Once ive read the latest i find my mantra more effective!
 
Sorry not to have anything useful to add due to my allergy but I can send you loads of hugs and lots of love if it helps xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Your allergy!! Love it. xxx

Hi all, meant to be packing for camping but had to come on & say Hi, besides I have a finances committee mtg tonight (yuck) and they go on & on & on so won't be about laters.....

Firstly Amalie slept all the way thru until 0630 this morning, a good 12 hours she had & we had a morning getting ready for school full of laughter & singing! We had an induction morning at 'big' school this morning where the kids get to go & play & take photo's of the classroom, the teacher, the playground etc etc & then make it into a scrap book... when I told her it was time to leave she got all weepy & said 'Mummy, I need to stay at big school, I'm too big for preschool now!!' you can't win can you??

Anyway last night in the bath she told me she was excited about big school & Miss Debenenenenenham!! :D

So I think alots sleep related & perhaps I was trying to look for lots of excuses & actually I just need to get the sleep thang back to rights!!

Fingers crossed I can get it all sorted before I have my meeting tonight!

Right off to pack clothes & food... brb probably!;)
 
Really pleased to hear that a good night's sleep helped. Those joyous mornings are worth waiting for:D
 
Sleep is such a wonderful thing, just think how we feel when we have not had enough.................and we understand what it is all about. Little ones have no idea what is wrong just that they don't feel right and then poor Mummies and Daddies get the backlash. Glad things are better all round - enjoy the camping :D xxxxxxxxxxx
 
I'm so glad things are improving for you and your littlies. It's such a hard time to go through. Please don't let it cast doubts on your parenting though - it's a hard job and they don't really come with detailed personalised instructions do they x
 
Hiya linz. Hope all continuing well and have agreat time camping:)
