So this week has been up and down, the usual roller coaster.
Sasha did agree to dress up for book character day on Friday, and she dressed as Dora (although as she kept saying, 'I'm not Dora, I'm Sasha'!). For pictorial evidence see my pictures blog by clicking on my 366 pics blog here.
When she left school for half term on Friday, she insisted that it's not just school holidays, but that the family should be going on a holiday somewhere.... erm, no. But she wasn't taking no for an answer, so I'll have to think of a quick mini trip for her this week!
On a personal level I hit the first hurdle with school which was quite upsetting but I'm sadly sure it won't be the last.
Today was the last day of the semester (American style term!) at Little Gym. All parents were invited in to watch and join in the 'Show' session this week. Sasha absolutely adores going to Little Gym, and the guys there have been so good with her - with all the children actually. All it takes is a little bit of understanding and flexibility, and that's how they are, so worth their weight in gold.
So the parents went in separately first, then each child was introduced into the room individually by doing a running jump over an obstacle. Sasha executed that brilliantly, and went and sat where she was supposed to, opposite the parents. The 'joining in' quickly stopped though, as you can see from this clip (she's the one with a pink top on, on the left!):
