Proud Mummy


My 7 year old, thats seven ... SEVEN ... as in not yet eight year old is heading off to camp this weekend.

The promise of archery, canoeing and bouldering was too big a draw for him, so he sets off on Friday night for two nights and two days away from home. Without the rest of us, as no parents are allowed to accompany their child, although one teddy is!

It's hard to believe; it seems like only yesterday he was lying in the wee incubator in the Special Care Baby Unit at the hospital, and the day after tomorrow he's away on a multi-activity weekend with his mates!

I wonder which teddy will get to go??

It was a close call, but eventually Blue was chosen!
