Feels like finally winning the battle with toilet training with Sophia. Have had a few failed attempts over the last 6 months or so, but she just refused to sit on the toilet/potty even though she tells us when doing a wee/poo and then demands her nappy be changed, so we haven’t pushed it.

With a good few days at home over the break we decided to take on the challenge again and hopefully have a breakthrough, which I think we have done. 4 days now with no nappies and no accidents since day 1. Hopefully by the time she’s back at nursery she will have it pretty much nailed.

Proud Grandad thread.
Took Layla Tash for her Martial arts grading tonight. She smashed it. Fitness, routines, stamina and sparring. She took some real smacks in the mouth and the other three that were graded were going for the belt above. She did there grading and just missed out on a double grading. She has her belt and two notches. On it. Not to mention she did a run in Sherwood pines on Thursday with 700 other kids. She came 16th. She is 8. She has her Nannas lungs 😉

Proud Dad, my eldest struggled with education throughout primary school because of his ADHD, and was failing miserably in Secondary school. We pulled him out of the state system and found a school that specialises in managing kids with autism and learning difficulties.

At the start of the year he said he wanted to apply for Head of House and today he got awarded the role and is Deputy Head Boy.

Proud of these two today. Graduation at pre school. They did amazing bless em.



Onto big school next year, they had 2 choices of teacher (eldests reception teacher who's lovely and eldests current teacher who is my wife's drinking buddy) so we found today they have the drinking buddy which will really help one of the girls who struggles with change a bit more than the other. Seeing her a lot picking up big sister and going into her class to get used to school.



Proud dad for sure

Went to grandsproggs awards ceremony for Skool on Monday. We had been told that one of them had an award to pick up. Turns out it was Layla Tash for Eco committee member of the year due to a speech she did on “ Earth day”. Grandad Tash tipped her the wink on that one 😉
Later that evening she got her “ 4th tip” on her mixed martial arts belt so she moves up to Blue I think it is. She is 8 yr old. Tucked her in bed Monday night and she said “ Ave had a good day ant ah Grandad”. “Indeed you have me duck, indeed you have”.
She was still wide awake with excitement when I checked on her at 11.30 pm.
