Contented

I was in the middle of a very vivid dream, having fallen back asleep after Steve left, and was woken rather abruptly by Joshua and Naomi.  They wanted me to get up right away but I was having a hard time coming round!  Josh was so excited about going to "school".  (Despite having told me yesterday that he didn't want to go today as it was boring!) This is his final session until he starts for real in August.  They have made the programme 5 days a week next year (it is currently only 4) so it will be full on for him but I think he's ready.  I'm so glad we did not push him this year but let him have the extra time to mature and learn enough to find the idea of learning more at school interesting.
Naomi and I had a pleasant day.  We went swimming at 8:15 - the pool was already lovely and warm and as I lay on my back in the water looking up at the bright blue sky and puffy clouds I said a thank-you prayer to God for being here and spared a thought for those in a British spring!
Then we did our food shopping then we picked up Naomi's friend so she had a playmate until we went to pick the children up from school.  They played much more quietly than Josh and Naomi play!!  They played with the cooking things and the doll's house and had a lovely time.
