School hols are over!!!!!!

Phew! All the kids are back at school! That was possibly the longest six weeks of my life - virtually housebound due to naff weather, kids having runny bottoms, hubby at work and just not enough hands to take all the little ones out together. But that's it for another year, hurray!
Cody is now full-time at school, which I didn't really want, but his lovely teacher persuaded me it would benefit him AND they do PE and go to Space on Wednesdays so I relented.
He also travels on the minibus now - which I also didn't want but does make things less hectic. I will feel bad forever about this as I have always taken all my kids to school, so why should Cody be any different? Well, because he goes to a special school and I can't be in two places at once! For the past two years I've been dropping him off late and picking him up early so that my other boys were always on time at their school and Codys' been losing half an hours education a day, which over a term adds up to quite a few days. So I had no choice really but to put my little 4 year old on the minibus. It's just another one of those things that makes me sigh. Like him not wearing his glasses or hearing aids : (((((
