Exactly. That first day is so so special, with all the new little kids and the anxious mothers, probably the only time in their school lives you getbto hold their hand in line up. I remember my youngest starting school, the same school a lot if his nursery group went to. All the kids in the line happy as Larry, all the parents holding back tears! We held on to our kids hands, and skipped our way across the playground into school . Sounds a bit daft but it's a special memory for me. Starting school a week late, Scratty will miss all of that, tho not sure she cares, first days and milestones mean nothing to her as she's done it so many times. Archie will be the one who misses out, not her, cos she doesn't care enough.
