My ds would, if we hadn't decided to HE, be starting school in just over a week. It feels really strange knowing that if we hadn't come to this decision (thanks in a large part to these threads on MN) we would have been (with great dread) preparing uniform, thinking about lunches, worrying about how he'd cope, not to mention desperately trying to teach him how to take himself to the loo and dress himself! I feel really excited about the year ahead, and I must admit very very relieved of the pressure to go along with something I know would be wrong for him ATM.
Has anyone else got a 4 year old who ISN'T starting school next week? Are you doing anything to mark the occasion? We're planning a family day out on the first-day-of-term to celebrate our decision (and prevent me from worrying about going against the norm...)
