We ride bikes to school every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Jack has taken to leaving early. Earlier than us so that he can ‘ride by himself’. This means he doesn’t wait for us at dismissal either. He rides home ‘alone’ too.

Yesterday morning Em met me at my bath room door crying.

It would seem that Jack told her that he was going to school and never leaving, so I would be arrested for child abandonment.

I love being the parent.
