cool banana's, toothy pegs and happiness

You know that feeling you get when you know that a change is coming and it feels good? I am in it. I have spent the last 4 weeks completely stressing my arse off (literally, yay) and now I am feeling the pieces come together and the excitement take over.
My Dad rang to say that he had weeded the old baths, that my Grandfather used to grow plants in, so that we can plant seeds and seedlings once we arrive. Mr P has organised the time off and I have spoken to the school we are thinking B will attend.

The new school Head of the SEU rang today and had a bit of a chat to me about the school and how they support the children who have Special Needs. She was so up beat and onto the needs that B5 has and is very realistic about how much support he will need. I was almost, yep almost, moved to tears when after explaining some issues we have experienced she said that they would love to have him attend their school. Awwww! This year has probably been the most cruel and intense one that I have experienced since he was born. I feel that even the first year of life was easier for me.
I have had to have my eyes forcibly opened to the fact that my son does have a disability. Of course he has had the diagnosis his whole life but he is like everyone else, he is such an amazing little soul. In the last 5 months that he has been going to school I have been told how much he throws tantrums, how much support he needs and I was told that he wasn't coping. I am sure that every mother wants their child to fit in and enjoy life and I am no different, it hurts. I am trying to focus on the positive achievements he has had, like that he can now tell me the letters of his name. He can count more and pronounce them quite clearly, he can say more words and is doing the first stage of learning to read (a way off yet but still exciting). So yeah that is all cool banana's to me.


I love the time of the morning when both my boys are in the bathroom cleaning their teeth. Big brother herds little brother into the bath for some quality teeth brushing and they are both extremely happy.



We went to a playschool live show the other week, I only just uploaded the photos. I adore watching my little men dance. B5 has some seriously rocking moves, he can air guitar with the best of them.



This is my boys with their cousin going on a bear hunt when Little Ted and Big Ted went missing. (The 3 boys in a row, blonde hair, brown hair and tiny blonde hair boys)


Good times, good times! *happy sigh*
