Well, this is it… Thia is now a big girl and has started (pre-)school this morning.
The day started pretty well, early this morning, with both Sarah and I up around 6:00AM, probably more excited than our young monster. And for once, this young monster decided she wanted a lie-in…
The morning routine kicked in, with Jo Jo Circus on the sofa, sipping a bottle of milk, followed by a light (fruit based) breakfast and some vitamins. We then got her ready and prepared her school bag (little pink elephant we bought this weekend at the Grove, when we met with Jay & Nikki), not forgetting to pack her dodo (dummy - pacifier) and Pooh for the nap time.
We then took a couple of memorabilia pictures (see PrettyPix) and drove in convoy to the school…
Arrived there, we dropped Thia and as predicted, we were all slightly emotional and the monster refused at first to leave us behind… We finally left her on the playground, screaming and kicking… only to be seen a couple of minutes later already playing with other kids, having already forgotten that we even existed!
So far, so good… The reports I received during the day seem to indicate that she has already perfectly acclimated to her new surroundings and that she seems to really enjoy school!
Another huge step for Thia and another couple of grey hair for us!
