Hi ho, hi ho ...

... it's off to school they go! Listen to that ... yes a very quiet house this morning! A part of me is very happy for the peace and quiet, but the other part is also a little sad ... coz my baby started her first day at school. Now Emma's birthday has been dragging on for almost 2 months now - we had an early party for her way back on the 13th of Dec, Kindy farewell on Dec 15th, actual birthday on 3rd of Jan and now the 2nd Feb is finally her first day at school - whew!
She is very excited to start and is very familiar with the school already so I think that has helped alot. Also I think having her bestest friend in the new entrants class already (she turned 5 in Nov) has made starting more fun.

Finn is starting in Year 3 this year and was glad to be going back to catch up with all his friends. All his classmates are the same as last year which will make the transition back to school easier for him too. They just moved into a new classroom with the Year 3 teacher.

So til 3pm I will enjoy this peace while it lasts :)
