Star Wars & Bunting
It’s that wonderful time of the year…… the preparation for Ben’s Birthday. It is no secret that I love birthdays, birthday parties, and all things that make them wonderful. So this year Ben is having a small (family and neighbors) Star Wars Lego party. I started on the invitation today and didn’t expect the reaction I received. You see I put bunting on it and apparently Star Wars and Bunting don’t go!!! My brother-in-law even went as far as comparing it to putting X Men in tutus. Andrew tried to tell me there is not such thing as Star Wars bunting. And my sister-in-law said it makes the Star Wars characters seem a little feminine. But I love it!! More importantly Ben thinks it is amazing!!! I think this will be the last year I can get away with bunting for his birthday. So in my world Star Wars and bunting are a perfect match!!!
A few hours later…… I rethought the whole bunting thing and went with stars. I still prefer the bunting….hehehhe!

Colouring!
As an Early Childhood Teacher I have always thought ‘colouring’ to be developmentally a waste of time. But as a parent I have wished Ben would just sit still and colour even for a just five minutes! Well today we coloured with a purpose….. labels for our garden. Ben coloured in the labels for the vegetable patch. (oh and I am sorry about those finger nails – we had been digging in the garden!!)
What a champion…… however he did ask for the ipod when he had finished because he had done such hard work! My son the master manipulator!!

Happy Mum!!!
Ben has been attending our local C&K Pre-Prep five days a fortnight for seven weeks now . I was very nervous about how Ben would go. But I couldn’t be more impressed!! His teacher is amazing and he loves her! He asks every morning if today is his Pre-Prep day and is truly disappointed when it isn’t. He has made a lovely little friend and they are like two peas in a pod!! I had a peak at his folio this week…. fabulous!!! A happy little man makes a Very Happy Mum!!!
This afternoon the parents were invited to come after Pre-Prep for a coffee afternoon. It was lovely….. so many lovely people. It was made even more special by a sweet surprise…….each parent got a coffee mug decorated by their child to use when they visit. Oh I just love it!!! Being a Mum is so much fun – I feel so lucky and blessed!!
