    Finally caught up, you guys really can gabber lol!! :D

    mommyof4 - So sorry about your purdy cat. :heart2:

    Beccah - I'm really pleased you are getting help from your son's pre-school. I can't imagine how you're feeling but take what ever time you need to process it all. Parents make all the difference in a child's schooling, regardless of whether the child has special educational needs or not. I'm guessing your DS probably likes his routines and structure. Here is a link to an educational website which has a section for parents (although you can use the whole site lots of bits are free), it has picture to make a home/morning timetable etc so that your child can feel secure in knowing what is coming next etc. There are all sorts of things on there. http://www.twinkl.co.uk/resources/parents

    We have several autistic children in our mainstream school, all of whom are valuable members of our school. :)

    Right time to get on with that tidying I vowed I would do last night!! :o After a quick riffle through my purse to see what I can pot! ;)

    13p to pot, there is also a rather lovely shiny £2 coin that I'd like to pot but I have £9 grocery budget until the 19th Feb so it might be wise to hold off potting that!! :D

    £5 change from supermarket shop + 2 x £1 coins I found laying around (wish this happened more often!).

    Into the pot they go.

    edit:
    I am the only one who finds themselves randomly shaking their pot every now and then to feel how heavy it is? Must say thart I'm not quite satisfied with the weight of mine yet. :rotfl:

    Aww you're welcome! :) With one of our younger children at school he had a timetable in class, we had a little picture of his face that he moved on to the next activity so he knew what was going to happen next....very cute!! :p

    Just did the banking and have been able to move £52 in to the deposit savings account...whoop whoop!! :dance:
