1st day of (pre-)school

Owen is really growing up! Of course we know this, but two things have recently brought this fact home to us.

Firstly, once Abby and Sean were born, Owen overnight grew much bigger, heavier and more mature; a psychological effect of now comparing him to his much smaller siblings. We have had to be quite careful when adjusting across the age gap; the first time Nathan tried to pick up Owen straight after carrying Abby, he nearly threw his back out!

The other - this week he had his first day of preschool! Here he is fully equipped with his new pre-school bag.






Unloading his provisions for the day:






There were no tears at all - in fact, Owen hardly had time to say goodbye to mum and dad, before he was off to play.
