Life has began to settle back down here now. It has been very trying and stressful few weeks, but hopefully we have all learnt from it and can now move on.
LA has had a couple of difficult days, reacting to all the stress around her, but remains as eager and keen to experience life to the absolute full as ever.
We've been enjoying the gorgeous weather, she has almost mastered her bike and her drawing and writing are improving day by day. I love to see the changes in her as her interests change and something new takes her attention. I cannot imagine how different life would be if she were in school and constrained by a timetable.
Thank goodness I discovered Home Education!

Difficult times
Livings not easy here at the moment.
Too many stressors and insufficient pleasures.

Play Day
LA and I have spent the day playing.
We have played with her new playdough, beads and playmobile.
We have been to the park (LA dressed in her police officer outfit, she has hardly taken it off since Tuesday!), played ball, football, and on the swings.
We have read books, played with stickers and posted the last of LAs party invitations.
A lovely day.

Happy 5th Birthday
It's LA 5th Birthday. "Excited" simply doesn't describe it.
Unfortunately as I still can't drive (health not alcohol), I haven't been able to take her out for the day as I had planned, but we have had a lovely time playing together with her new presents.
We have also baked and decorated her cake.
It's family tradition that the birthday person gets to pick where we eat so we all went out to McD's for dinner.

She's just (at 9.15pm) gone to bed, looking forward to her party on Sunday.

A Weekend at Nanny Frogs
Rich, LA and I have spent the weekend in Rochester, Kent visiting Richs Mum.
The "Sweeps Festival" was on and we had a lovely few hours wandering through the town watching the dancing. LA joined in by copying the dance whilst watching.
Then Nanny surprised LA with an early birthday treat.
Sunday 26th April
A beautiful day.
LA has had a wonderful time climbing the rocks and trees and taking photographs.
Wednesday 22nd April
Playing catchup again...
On Wednesday (22nd) LA and I spent the day at a local park. The sky was blue, the air was warm and it was a beautiful day. However, apart from a few dog walkers, we had the park to ourselves.
We took some pens and paper and LA did some writing about the things we saw. She also had great fun playing in the dens and "being alone".
We had a lovely picnic by the river, and blew lots of bubbles
