In the morning I had this brilliant idea to ask Bianca to drop Caitlyn off at her class. As it was I struggled to get shoes on let alone walk properly. After Sunday's walk I ended up with 2 rather big blisters on the one foot, 2 purple toes on the other foot and rather sore legs (walking is a dangerous sport I tell you...). And so I was rather thankful that Bianca was able to help me out.
When it was time to get the kids I hobbled / waddled / limped rather uncomfortably to Caitlyn's class and I waited for the bell to go. When it went, she came out, looked at me and promptly started crying.
"What's wrong???"
"I wanted Bianca to pick me up..."
Sigh! My 5 year old doesn't need me anymore...
So today I had strict instructions not to wait for Caitlyn and that Bianca would pick her up. And so when it was time to pick the kids up I dutifully waited at the playground for the kids to come.
Oh the joys of having kids who grow up too fast...

Aye we do come redundant for a while! Don't worry when they leave home they'll want you...your money...your food....your.....
I rather like it when my kids grow up - makes them more responsible faster = less worries for us.
Oh your poor feet and legs - sounds painful!!!
I would take every chance offered to have a rest.
It's lovely your two girls get on so well.
Hope your legs feel better today :)
I get the same reaction sometimes from one of our girls when I show too much interest in her sport. I empathise with you!
Hearing that would have been like a stab to my heart ;) But in a way it's also cool to know that she loves Bianca so much as her big sister.

Oh you rfeet sounds super painful!
Gosh and yes, scary how they grow up.
She loves you really.
Oh boo hoo. I dread the day when my son will no longer want to be my little baby, and I will stand there and bawl my eyes out.
But all your stories about both your girls tells me that the time has not come just yet - they still need their Mummy! :-)
