Happy Days

As you may know Riley started a "play group" nearly two weeks ago.

The first day she was really not keen. As Eleanor said, she had to peel Riley off me like paint.

She has however gotten better and better. So much so that last Friday she actually asked to go to "Leanor". She rushed through breakfast and wanted to put her shoes on to "go".

There are only three other children at the group (Ethan, Leea and Sarah), so maybe that is why she has settled down so well.

So far there have been no conflict issues, though we did warn Eleanor that there had been a problem over Christmas.

Riley is also learning a few new things - which she brings home with her. She has taken to re-arranging our door mats to match the reading mat at school, at the little blue chairs get arranged to make a reading circle. She also sings nursery rhymes etc. which she didn't before.

Sorry that we have no pics, but I have not wanted to disturb too much. I will try get one soon though.

Riley also seems to like the fact that "Granny fetch me", so she has that certainty to hold on to.

Hopefully with Claudia away this week everything will remain on track, and then we can go back to the plan of Claudia dropping her on the way to work, so that I can still get to work in time to do what I need to do.
