Today's crafting...

My little physicist

A picture of a man talking, you can see the soundwaves he's making. By my five year old son.

Goats only

According to my two year old daughter, this sign means only goats are allowed! 😂😂

Parents' evening

Rocked up with seconds to spare for our son's first parents evening, out of breath from cycling. Felt a teeny twinge of naughtiness for almost being late, worried about getting scolded. 😂 So proud of our boy's academic and social progress. He's a clever, kind and friendly little boy. Only development thing for him was learning to hold his thoughts, though his lovely teacher was very firm about not wanting to crush his enthusiasm and curiosity. ❤️

English spelling

Trying to help teach my five year old to read and he's already noticing the ridiculousness of English spelling. He's like, who is hoo, yet what isn't hat?? 😂

Mushy bananas

= banana loaf day!

Wriring skillz

Son got a token today, a house point, for writing so well that he apparently wrote like a year one child (next year up). He's so proud of himself! 😍❤️ As he's been writing such rubbish at home with the writing exercises, as if he can't write at all, I'm beginning to wonder if he's just bored with what he sees as pointless exercises... 🤔

Empathy

My darling son seems to have grown up overnight, massive empathy leap. He carefully took off his clothes this evening so they were the right way round (not inside out) so I don't have to do it when I wash them. ❤️😍❤️😍❤️😍❤️

[Does better than his daddy...! 😂 ]

Poorly before versus poorly now

Grumpy. Stuck at home with a very demanding two year old while poorly is so different to the hours of luxurious snooze and rest I used to have while poorly. Managed to hide behind the sofa and have a power nap on the floor while she was distracted with tablet and pancake.

Mama is back to school...

Son just told me that I can get house points if I stay calm and don't get angry when he's being really naughty. 😂 Bless his little heart. 😍 ❤️
