BERTIE MCSQUIRTY Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 baby birtle mcsquirtles of the family, aged 4 has the attitude this morning, all exited and has gone to school. "aah mum" she said tutting "you going home then? - bye", and almost pushed me out of the door!!! talk about settling her in.........i doubt she'll be as exited by the end of the week!!

Seagazer Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Its nice to feel wanted isn't it?! Actually I've always been glad if my kids have happily gone into school. My two boys were fine but it took my DD ages before she settled. I hope she has a brilliant time at school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Always a tough one, but it is a good thing that she was happy to get on with it, she is obviously a happy secure little girl My 2 girls were great my son was less keen but was ok.

Minnie the Moocher Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I had the same. DD was a real leg-clinger, but DS skips of to nursery with not a backwards glance. *sigh* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Awful for you, but a relief at the same time, when they go in without so much as a glance back over their shoulder. The end of an era. Or the start of a new phase in your life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LisaP Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Oh how lovely that she was so happy to go, although I know how tough it can be on us Mums I had a mixed response from my 4 and I was never really sure which was harder - the ones who just trotted off without so much as a look back, or the limpet one who had to be peeled off Had a tear in my eye regardless Lisa P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jules. Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I must be a bad mummy- i had all sorts of things planned for once youngest had started school- shopping trips, chats with friends/ lazy lunches I AM a bad mummy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BERTIE MCSQUIRTY Posted April 20, 2009 Author Share Posted April 20, 2009 well she came home just as blaze as she left!!! entered the house, emptied her pack lunch bag, said it was the best meal ever!!!! and then decided (with the neighbours 4 yr old) that as they were now big girls at school - that they could go to the park by themselves ....needless to say that did not happen!!

Valkyrie Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 That's lovely to hear - it's awful if they cry - thankfully mine were like baby McSquirty. Nowadays I am actually longing for them to leave full stop! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mutrix Farmers Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 glad day one went well! My friend's little boy thought he only had to go once and was really excited on day one but less so on day 2 when he realised it was "for ever"!!!
