Well, we did. Survived the first day at school. He went straight in, sat down and played with the train track, completely unphased by other children crying, mums crying... he played with everything.
I stood there like a lemon, not quite sure if I left it long enough to leave him. I had a little tear when speaking to another mum who was quite openly distraught. It was a big day for her in many ways.
After 2 hours I picked him up and he ran out beaming, shouting I love school!
Phew... so that's okay then!
Rufus missed his big bro.. but played in the park with his best mate Henry.
I think the excitement is all too much for him.
I am now sitting here still sewing in nametapes to his clothes, happy in the knowledge that my monkey is gonna do alright.
