Today is my little Cookie’s last day at Primary School. I’m trying hard not to be sad as she is so excited for her future at Secondary – but ………… she is growing up and I miss that little girl so much!
That little girl who slept permanently with me and her Daddy x
That little girl who loved to dance – all the time x
That little girl who believed her Grampy could climb a ladder and fix the moon 😀
That little girl who loved her Barney the Dinosaur – and cried when a new rhyme came out about “hanging Barney from a tree” 😊
In that little girls place – we now have this beautiful, almost 11 year old – who pinches my make-up, who nearly drives me to drink, who stresses me out beyond all belief and back chats on a daily basis 😄 but she is simply wonderful!
I love you my little Cookie ❤️

Tis scary how fast the years go 😨 I still ask my eldest son – who’s 24 – if he’s had a poo if he complains of stomach ache 😂😂

And yes it is so hard to see them growing so fast , which is a conundrum because as parents we're also almost always wishing them to 🙂
Your adorable baby is growing into a beautiful girl ❤ , congratulations on her "promotion" to big school .

My little girl is twenty now. It seems like yesterday when she was 11. I have loved every stage of her growing up and am sure that will continue. Enjoy it because she is about to reach that stage where Mom makes sense and I can tell you are really going to enjoy that. She is going to be a fantastic woman.. because fantastic women come from fantastic mothers!

I’m going to return the compliment and tell you what a lovely Dad you are – I love your continued involvement in your daughters life – I truly wish I had had a Dad like you whilst growing up xx

I feel your pain! My ‘baby’ has just left secondary school. People always focus on the children when actually sometimes it’s the parents that need a little hug to help them transition. Sending you a virtual one 🙂

My sister thought of shutting her kids in the wardrobe from ages 12 to 17. they are now middle aged and all get on fine with each other.

Ha! I think my mom thought the same with me – I was a lovely child, horrible teenager 😨
Mom used to say “good in the cradle, bad at the table” – very true in my case x
