After what seemed an eternity Jake is back at school and in Reception no less. He looks so cute in his new uniform. He has a white polo shirt, blue sweatshirt and grey shorts. He was also wearing his new black school shoes.
Jake was fine in the morning and got dressed without any trouble. We decided, because it was a special occasion, to take him to school together. It was a lovely morning so we thought a walk through the park would be nice. Jake opted to take his scooter. He delighted in overtaking us down Vicars Hill. I pretended that Mia’s milk bottle was a special turbo button :-).
At the school all the parents and children were milling around. Jake immediately saw James and started to play. At 9am the teacher rang the big hand-style school bell and the children queued up ready to go into the building. It was sad to see my little Jake all ‘grown up’ and entering the next stage. It seems like only yesterday that we were taking him to the Nursery playground around the corner. Having said this it is also exciting especially for Jake, who has all his best friends in his class. What an angel!
