The younger two were excited about school/kindy and the older one excited about his birthday being today. They should certainly be weary tonight!!! Trish - yeah, I do need a rest. But DD is having a birthday party on Friday after school so might not get much chance until after that!!!! Tiff - I know exactly what you mean!!!!

Writing is one of those things where a small interruption can mean losing 45 minutes of productive thinking as you try to get your brain back to where it was prior to the interruption - so balancing that with a 5 year old boy can mean you spend more hours at the computer than you might necessarily want to. As now I even spend the wait times his swimming lessons scribbling away on my Tablet PC, less computer time is probably a good thing! He's been doing full day childcare two days a week since he was 2 and kinda since he was 3, so it isn't as though he hasn't had a chance to get out of the house (or for me to get used to having him out of the house). He's really looking forward to it and Caulfield Grammar is a great school - they are leaping over backwards with prepatory stuff for the prep-transition. Also, he hasn't seen many kids (other than occasional playground romps) over the last 6 weeks, so I think he's looking forward to being in a group of kids even if it is a totally different group of kids to the ones he's know at Kinda or the child care center.

Been ready for a week and a half, truth be told. Kids can hold much more interesting and entertaining conversations than adults!
