Yesterday my middle child started school. He had a ball and I managed not to cry, too much!! L has the same teacher that J had last year and is really excited about that, I on the other hand am not as she is really airy fairy and a bit lax. But as L is a bright child I am sure he will get along fine.

Today my daughter started nursery. She was hyper about going and went in no bother. It took me ages to get away from the place though. Not because she didn't want me to leave but because I had to be thorough and make sure that the nursery staff were fully informed regarding her food allergies. One of the teachers is really nervous about her starting because she has seen her react in the past. But my daughter is older now and more aware of the consequences if she handles or eats something that she is allergic too. I am sure all will go well and the bottle of antihistamine and steroid tablets will remain unopened.

Time is just motoring on at the minute because I am up and down to school several times a day at the moment. Once in the morning to drop them all off, then back at 11.30 to collect my daughter from nursery, then back at 12.10 to collect L then back at 3.20 to collect J. Then tonight we are back up again at 4.30 to take L to his swimming lessons.

It is all go, so much so that I have now organized a family planner!
