We’re rapidly approaching another half term, and racing towards the end of N’s first school year. Eeek. He’s definitely growing up quickly what with a first tooth falling out and finally having feet that are starting to grow…his feet are…
N’s feet have finally grown. His school shoes still fit ok but he needed new trainers which are always harder to buy. His insteps aren’t particularly high, he’s an F fitting, but velcro fastenings never seem long enough on trainers…
