Back To School

Just like that summer is over and it’s back to school.

I never want mine to go back I love having them at home.

This year I really didn’t want them to go back, they have kept me going this summer and was dreading them returning to school.

And to be honest it has been super super hard them returning and has lead to some really hard days this week.

But back to school isn’t about me it is about them.

And within a blink of an eye I seem to have a child in year 8 and a child in year 3.

I am not sure how that has happened for either of them.

I definitely don’t know how we have a child in his second year of secondary. But we do and it is crazy how fast this childhood seems to be whizzing past.

They have both really enjoyed their first week back.

Boo loves his new teacher and is loving being back with his friends, and all the football that is happening at the moment.

BB hhas always loved school, he loves the routine of it and loves to learn and I am so thankful that even in year eight he still is like that. Returning to school has never been an issue he slots right back into the midst of things and just get on with what ever he needs to get on with.

It has been fab listening to their days and what they have done at school this week.

And with going back to school the clubs also return. We have football, karate and scouts back already and just waiting for Beavers to return as well. Which means we are once again driving here there and every where of an evening dropping either one of the boys to this club or another.

So it’s all a bit manic at the moment. But I am so pleased as that means they are enjoying everything they are doing and glad to be back at school and the clubs they have always done.

But I have to be honest it is taking some getting used to this term. I am absolutely shattered and getting back into the routines is taking a bit longer than usual thats for sure.

So we are chilling this weekend, having some family time and preparing for the next full week of school and the school time routine. As it is definitely needed for all of us!
