I was planning on writing a proper blog post about Rhys starting reception class at school, or perhaps an open letter to him about it. Who knows, maybe I still will in a few days.
But the words won’t come quite yet. I think I’m still processing the whole thing.
So for now, I’ve managed a haiku. All my feelings summed up in 17 syllables.
I’m pretty sure I won’t be the only one shedding a few tears on the drive home from school drop-off this week!



Aw good luck! I’m sure you’ll all be fine, although I can understand your apprehension! Will look forward to reading your full blog post, if you write one 🙂 I found you via #TwinklyTuesdays 🙂
Thank you Nicola! It’s such a big step, pretty emotional stuff! x
I felt the same way too the first time my little boy went to nursery, it’s a strange feeling. Hope you’re little one settles in quick in school. #TwinklyTuesday
Thank you, he seems to have settled in well, does make it a bit easier for us parents! x
Ahhh this is so lovely. I haven’t reached school age yet but I have spent many days crying as I leave Zach at nursery so gawd knows what I’ll be like when he does go to school! It’s such a huge moment isn’t it? Hope it’s all going well.
Oh God, leaving them at nursery is awful though isn’t it! School’s actually not seemed so bad in comparison! x
Those are totally acceptable mama tears!

Stopping over from #TwinklyTuesday
