Long service leave has begun, as has the renovating of our beach cottage. It's been hard. While trying to finish all of my work deadlines, packing, planning and whatnot, I've had a sick boy who also was scared of moving schools and was so sad saying goodbye to his friends for two months. It's a long time when you're six! My heart breaks for him, but then I also know that he'll be making new friends at his new school, and will still have his friends back home in Melbourne. He can't see it... yet.
| Lying in the sunshine; Sick and tired boys cuddling near the couch; sunshine through the trees; affectionate biting - that's normal right?; Plenty of planning for the renovations. |
Change is always a scary thing but our children are much more resilient than we are and I just know your boys will both settle well in their new environment Kymmie.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to following your reno journey :)

ReplyDeleteIt's great you are wording them up early! We did, but was met with denial ;) today went well, and he's looking forward to school tomorrow!
Deletehow fabulous for him though, when you've moved home again, and then, we you visit your beach cottage and he has a town full of friends each time he is there.

Exciting times ahead Kymmie. Like you, we are starting our house reno too (still planning). It is fun but exhausting! Your boys are so beautiful. I hope they settle into the new school swiftly x

DeleteChange everywhere. But good change is an adventure that must be taken!
