But thanks God he didn't win.
My dd went to the nursery I wanted her to go since I was pregnant.
It is rated outstanding but to be honest I was ever a bit disappointed with the school, but I always thought maybe I was been to exigent.
It was my first choice primary when I had to apply for reception, as my dd was setteld and had friends (and I befriended other parents too).
But we were sent to my 5th choice which made me angry, sad, desperate and depressed for while, as the school does not have a great reputation. But turns out that the new head teacher appointed in 2007 is doing realy well and I realised that it is not the end of the world and there is nothing I can do about it. The school is graded good anyway.
Now I hae visited the school and searched about it, sopke to toher parents about it and I got a good feeling about the school. My dd is looking foward to start there and I am looking foward to the teachers home visit.
But on the back of my mind I am hoping that this does not turn to be a big disaster and I am trying be strong specially because every single friend of ours got their 1st choice and I have to put on a brave face and try not to feel sorry for myself or like the biggest loser around.
I was in a B'day party when a parent that isn't is my friend came to me with this boring talking about school places and waiting lists, clearly thinking that my dd got into school A and gossiping about other children who did not get into it. As I said my dd got into school R but that was ok and we were happy, he could not let it go and went on saying that school A was the best around and no other school could beat it and my dd would suffer leaving her friends at school A and having to start all over again...
I mean, waht can I do??
Could he just not leave it alone, hoe could he being so insensitive??
I went through a hard time trying to accept my dd was going to school R and be happy about it so she wouldnt pick up my stress or bad emotions, and this guy tried to ruin everything....
Than he said if he was me he would be on the phone everyday trying to monitor my dd's podition on waiting list but I said that even if I win the lottery today she would still attend school R and we were happy about it.
He never spoke to me for the rest of the party.
