The day arrived when the youngest of the farmers headed off to big school , where does all the time go !!? . It seems like no length ago he was only a baby and then a toddler but they the time just seemed to speed up and now when I look at him I see a little man looking back at me not a little boy anymore .
He started his big school on Thursday and we had no tears thank God , we were there early and all the parents went into their new class and got settled . The littlest farmer was happy enough to sit at his desk and his teacher gave him some blocks to play with . He knows a couple of the boys in his class so at least that made it easier on him for his first day . He was finished at 12 and I treated him to Mc Donalds for his lunch for his first day in school .
The second morning which was Friday I did nearly have tears because I didn’t get to stay as long with him as the first day because I had to go to school to welcome my new kids to their class . He was ok going in but when he sat down and I had to go he wanted to know could some of the other teachers not take my kids and I could stay in school with him . His eyes filled up when I told him I had to go but no tears came so I hope he is ok tomorrow because the farmer has to bring him because I am back to school full time again with my 7.00am start .
This morning just to make me feel worse about how fast he is growing up he lost his first tooth , his first baby tooth , he is only four !! . He was so cool about it , it fell out early this morning and he said he just took it out and left it on his bookbeside hsi bed and he thought no more about it . When the farmer came in after checking all the stock he noticed the gap and when we asked he just said that fell out its upstairs , no excitement or nothing arent boys funny creatures :).
The whole house is nearly gone back to school after our summer off , the middle little farmer went back on Thursday as well he went into fifth year . The eldest little farmer is starting his second year of his Agriculture science course on the 8th September so he will be gone next weekend and I am back to school again tomorrow so the farmer will have to house to himself again in the mornings at least .
Did any of your little ones start school ? How did it go ? well I hope .
