Josh has been so excited, as we all have, and went to bed last night really looking forward to the next day. I planned on getting up early this morning to start getting everything ready and set my alarm for 7am. Rebekah, however, decided that 6am would be better!
Josh woke up in a really good mood and had breakfast straight away. No arguments this morning about brushing his teeth and before I knew it, he was stood before me in full school uniform! The first thing he did was to look in my full length mirror and announce how smart he looked!
It turned out to be a really relaxed morning, and I was even able to straighten my hair! There followed lots of photos, inside and out, and then we were ready to go.
It was such a lovely morning and walking through the park was very pleasant. Josh kept pointing out other children in the same uniform and one Mum came over and introduced herself and her daughter and welcomed us to the school.
When we arrived at the school, there were lots of nervous looking Mum's already waiting. The small gate was opened, and for today only, we were allowed to escort the children around to the back of the classroom. A few minutes later, the bell was rung and the children were asked to line up by their classromms. Without a backward glance Josh took off and lined up with his friends. I went over to say goodbye and ask for a kiss, but his eyes were fixed on the classroom! It was at this point, that I had a few tears and us Mums had a little hug!
That was it, Joshua was now at big school. What do I do now...that's right...a coffee morning with new Mums planning what we can get up to now the kids are at school!
