Anya and Zach have broken up for the summer. Matthew has 2 more days next week but I don’t think much work will be done! It feels like a big week as the kids are getting so grown up. Zach was invested in Cubs and finished his first year at junior school. Anya has now finished primary school and Matt is ready for his GCSEs and received an award for Geography.
I am exceptionally proud of them all even as they take another step on their journeys away from me. I remember my own mum saying that if my sister and I didn’t move on then she would have failed as a mother. Our job is to prepare them for the future but it doesn’t mean my heart isn’t breaking at the same time.
Speaking of growing up quickly, Patch’s babies are 23 days old but already so big!
