Those back-to-school routines kick in soon.*
Whether you have one child or many,
There’s the wake-up and get them up routine.
Followed by dressing and breakfast.
Then, checking they have what they need for the day ahead: Books, PE kit, pencils, lunch money (or lunch).
When I was new to all this, my mornings were a rush.
I ran around trying to find things my children announced were needed that day.
Often, as we were going out the door!
I soon learnt that getting books and sports kit together and leaving bags by the door the night before was a huge time saver.
Once out of the house and into the car (school was six miles away), I loved my time chatting with my two girls and, from time to time, classmates who shared a lift.
Looking back, I do miss those times, mad as they could be.
I hope you enjoy yours while you can.
Brace yourself!
They will be back very soon.
Best wishes,
Tracy
