Hello Bright eyes, oh you make my world go round and I love you very much! Your journey this year has been so exciting. I have loved watching you grow and develop in leaps and bound.
This week you went back to school after your school holidays. It was so nice to have been able to spend so much time with you - one on one.
You were excited to be putting your uniform back on, jumping out of your skin to see your friends (and your teacher). You told me as we walked in the school gates that school is cool, and that was all I needed to hear. I knew you would be fine on your first day back. No sign of apprehension, just hugs for your friends and teacher and you got on with your day.
You are learning and growing and changing everyday and I am so very proud.

ReplyDeleteWhenever I read your words to your son it reminds me how lucky kids are when they are one on one with a parent. Despite how hard I know it is for you to parent alone sometimes, it's such a special way for him to grow up. x
ReplyDeleteJane, this is about the best compliment I can give someone...but you remind me so much of my mum in the way you parent and appreciate your little man. She never once gave the impression that solo parenting was a huge burden though I know it must have been in hindsight. And your photo is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteCat, that is one of the nicest things any one has ever said to me. I dont know your gorgeous mum, but just looking at the way you are with your boys, Im guessing your relationship is special.
DeleteI definitely try and keep this positive parenting attitiude, even though its hard sometimes, but I know that one day I he will be grateful
