Steiner school

Parents evening this evening was different to say the least. I always dreaded this at the old school, as it usually meant a negative five mins of how we should be doing more and how poorly L compared to lots of her peers. Depressing. Tonight....wow, I KNOW that her teacher cares, she really does. She is passionate about her small class and listens to them and the parents.

l is doing sooo well, she loves school and is progressing beautifully. Yet she fights with her brother too much but I'm reassured now that it is normal for her to be difficult at the nine/ten year change. It will pass. We talked both alone with the teacher and in a group of class parents, together, chatting to benefit the class. Why don't state schools do this? It is so nice and reassuring to hear other peoples concerns and joys and ank any questions we want to.

Archies birthday tomorrow, we are going to have buttermilk pancakes for brekkie and then go out for tea after I've finished work. In a rush on my was home today I stopped at a lovely toy shop and bought him some kingdom Lego, a lovely soft frog cuddly, some schleich moose figures for the growing collection! Some ham a beads and a new pack of old maid, his favourite game and another wooden game.

I can't believe he will be.seven! He is a lovely boy, and o funny! He loves to climb and run and ride. Swing from his rope swing and climb on the fence to wave goodbye. He loves acing wood and hunting for bugs, playing with Nelson and building dens.
He flips on the trampoline and loves to entertain and dance, breaking on the floor! He loves dinosaurs and dragons and knights and cowboys. He loves playing with friends and going to the park. He loves going to grandad mims and having beans on toast and going to nanny at whiteways to play with flo! Little Archie, we love you!
