Dylan at (nearly) the end of Reception

The One Where Dylan Starts His Second Term Of School
First off I cannot believe that I my little scrunchy, occasionally goblin-like teeny tiny first born is at school. It blows my mind a little bit. He seems to have grown up so much in the last 6 months and I am not 100% sure that I am ok with it. Dylan makes me so... Continue Reading →
