Auntie Knows Best

Today we were invited into school to see the work that The Little Mister has been doing recently.

I loved this poem he wrote about a fern. Clever boy.

This was one of the photos which appeared on the school app. The Little Mister and his bestie Maxi getting on with some work. They look quite studious which is hilarious as they are proper troublemakers when they are together!

A trip to The Big Geekend at Candie Museum meant all things Japanese and a unicorn face paint for The Little Miss.

The kids have been having the most wonderful week with their childminder Jayne. Today they went to Herm and Jayne sent me some fabulous pics of their day out, including this one. We are lucky to have such loving childcare for our children.

I cannot believe that we are at the end of reception and year 1.

The kids have done absolutely fantastically over the last year. They have grown and thrived in a fantastic nurturing, caring and creative environment. I am thrilled to see their art work, listen to them read and watch them write. I am just as delighted when I see their friendships developing and them being kind, generous and gentle with their classmates.

I deeply appreciate the care and love the teaching staff give to our children and I am grateful they care for them in our absence.

Onward to the summer. Good job everyone.

I love seeing all the kids things at school and it made me smile to see that The Little Mister’s picture above his peg is of Pikachu. His favourite!

The Little Mister often sits with his beloved pussy cat Betty whilst he is watching the TV. I love to see them cuddled up together.

The Little Mister had to draw pictures of all the things he loved. He included the cats, Grandma and Grandad and his Pokemon cards. Not a single picture of Mummy and Daddy or his sister.

For some really random reason the envelope included pictures of a Jewish menorah and a Torah scroll. Weird.

Happy Father’s Day Mister and as a reward you get to run a Half Marathon!

The children and I are so lucky to have this fabulous man in our lives. Reliable, stable, safe and committed, we are truly fortunate to have him!

The Little Mister learnt a hard lesson today.

He learnt that this is what happens to his stack of Match Attacks cards if he leaves them in the pocket of his shorts which he then puts in the wash.

Oops.
