This week’s word of the week is Friendship. We are almost at the end of the first week of the October half-term school holiday and it’s been a busy one so far, we haven’t ventured far from home but we have kept ourselves busy with crafts, baking and visits from friends. Daisy has been eagerly awaiting this break from school, not just because it falls over Halloween but because she knew her best little friend who had to go to a different school in September would be visiting.

I kept the actual day of the visit a secret from here so when there was a knock on the door yesterday afternoon you can imagine her delight when she saw who was on the other side of it.

During nursery they were inseparable and as we live close by we shared the school-run route together too. The real big bonus is that I have also found friendship with the child’s mum so it was just as lovely for me to have them visit as well.

As you can imagine there was a lot of excitement and giddiness that afternoon but also lots of cuddles and you could see just how much they had missed each other. When it came time for them to leave there were sad faces but we will see each other again soon just before Christmas.

Watching their friendship grow has been just wonderful and I hope they will remain firm friends all the way through childhood.

I’m linking up with Jocelyn from The Reading Residence for this week’s Word of the Week.

Have you made any friends through your children? leave me a comment I love hearing from you.
