LOL G, I know the feeling! Yesterday at football I was talking to one of the older Mums - her DD coaches the girls netball team so she is nearly 16 and her youngest is 14 and she was saying she couldn't get over how fast A got about the place, one minute he was in one spot and the next time she looked around he was in a totally different spot but she did say that she has probably just forgotten what it was like LOL. Glad you have the kinder sorted out. A will start in February as well but we don't have enrollment till October. That sounds really unprofessional of the other one though to send out emails about other people.

Happy Belated Birthday MP!!! Sounds like you had a wonderful day. I think I know what those robot things are, they look pretty good. As I said to G, A will go next year as well. At our preschool they can go for a full or a half day at 3yo, and then as many as 3 days as 4yo's (the year before they start school) so two years all up. He will do a full day next year and I'm thinking of enrolling him for 2 days the year after but we're not decided on that yet. Alister probably spends half the day playing on his own - outside in the dirt with the trucks or riding bikes/scooters or he is inside playing with his cars or the trains. He just loves being the only one here because no one bugs him. Maybe it's just your DH's way of making it up to N for working and not seeing him so much? Maybe you could compromise with him and have every second weekend out doing something and then have a home weekend where you all just hang out at home?

Jaz, I didn't realise they had a big cut off like that for kinder in QLD. So she will be well over 4 before she starts then?
