Last night was number 2 sons leaving assembly at school. I was dreading it, because when my other son left we were in a hall with no windows or air conditioning and we were all melting.
Fortunately last night they had the bright idea of having it on the school lawn. It was still hot, but there was the occasional light breeze.
We had a lovely night
, although I'm glad I was wearing my sunglasses because at the start of the first song (R Kellys - The Worlds Greatest) I nearly let a tear escape 
)
All the children had a part to say (its only a small school), but because of it being on the lawn we couldn't hear anyone, apart from my son (must take after his mother 
)
The children really looked as though they really enjoyed theirselves and none of the parents could believe they were leaving already.
Also one of the parents who organised a leavers disco for them last week came up to us to congratulate us on having such a polite son. She said he nearly made her cry at the end of the disco, because he was the only one that went up to the two of them and told them he'd had a great night and to thank them for organising it all (that's my boy!!)
So I'm a little sad that he's growing up and starting a new school, but also very proud of him. I told him I wanted him to stay my baby forever, but as he pointed out, he's already taller than me 
So l was left with a lovely warm fuzzy glow last night (and not from the sun either!)
Took some photos when we got home because number 1 son needed some family pics for his website. Haven't had a look at them yet, but if they're any good I might post some later.
Have a nice day everyone - it rained last night and feels much cooler here now. Hope that's not the end of the Summer
