Today is my son’s birthday, he is 11 years old and I just cannot believe it. Time really is flying by and I am sure he is going to grow up so much over the next few years.

He has now left primary school and is ready to start secondary school in September, I will admit I am a little scared by this!

However I cannot wait for him to start, grow into himself, try new things and start growing into to the little person he will be. Just means he won’t need me so much, well he will do but will need me in other ways I suppose.

Anyway, we had a nice day. We were greeted at 7am to open presents and cards in bed, he was so happy as he got a new mobile phone. He has shown us over the past 6 months that he can be responsible with a phone but the one he had, was a really rubbish one. So he now has a smartphone and now can ‘keep up’ with his friends.

Then we had a special breakfast with waffles, strawberries, cream and sprinkles!

He was a lucky boy and ended up getting £100 in money from family and friends. So we went on a little shopping trip! He chose one of the biggest and noisiest toy in the shop!! Roboreptile from ToysRus £59.99 (at time of writing)
