Inigo and I went to buy the last bits of school uniform today. For shoes, we went to the shop I went to every year when I was a kid. They have a train that kids sit on when they get fitted, and the staff take all the time in the world to make sure you get exactly the right shoes.
It feels right to do this big milestone with some ceremony.

Absolutely! Best wishes to Inigo for the year ahead and bug hugs for you — as a teacher and parent I know that it’s often worse for the mamas!

I remember getting school shoes while sitting on a train when I was a kid!
I can’t believe the boys will be at school next week! I’m in denial….I’m not looking forward to 5 school lunches a week. 😀

I look upon the lunch thing as a challenge – if I can do it without getting bored, maybe he can eat it without getting bored 🙂
