1013
This is parenting in a way, in one image. Your children reach a point where they start to rush on in front of you and you're left to try and keep up.
Leila is my baby and will always be. Many have said the same before me, I am well aware of that, but she just is, my babe. It's hard to watch her moving away, making her own path and walking confidently down it. I've said before that she's been a revelation to me, so different to her sister. I've learned so much from being her mother, she's taught me how to be what she needs and I feel proud of how I mother her.
Time flies and it's hard to remember Ella's first day but that's another journey that is also moving too fast.
Today was a success. She was happy after school, although tired. She ate some food, though not much. She went to the toilet "lots of times" and didn't lose her friends in the playground. She made a new friend in the playground from another prep class, Abbey, and they found each other again at lunchtime. She still wanted to cuddle with me on her bed, shared a freddo from the "Parental Survival Kit" and with her and Ella home again, all was right in this house.
I hope your little ones fared as well.

I am not looking forward to when my baby starts kinder next year... My poor hubby is worried I will want a number four... I dont think so... I will just miss the company and social life he has brought to my life!
