I must admit that I thought I would be a emotional wreck but I was absolutely fine. I loved dressing him in his uniform on his first day, seeing him running in all excited, coming out and telling me about his day. I was used to him going to the school nursery so that might have helped.

MrsCraig I thought I'd handle it better than I have!! My daughter started nursery the same day so I feel like I lost both my arms in one day! My two are always joined at my hip!

I think one of the hardest lessons when your baby starts school is the fact that someone else is teaching them new skills etc. Then it's a new emotion when they start a bigger school

They love it that’s the main thing just pray don’t catch too many germs as this is when they catch everything and gain their immune system so can grow big and strong and healthy.

Sounds odd now, but after getting pregnant, giving birth and looking after my first born I forgot you had to send them to school, I hated it. I wanted to spend time with my child as I loved it.

My granddaughter had her first day today. She loved it except for lunch, she is a fussy eater now but aged 2 would try anything.
