I have just realised that my son has about 10 pairs of navy joggers and the same, if not more, of navy jersey shorts for school… he’s on a part time timetable (SEN), I reckon that would do him over a month! How on earth did I not realise how many he had when I ordered more last term? 😂 I was ordering polo shirts and PE tops which he DID need! In fairness the new ones are a size larger and he will outgrow some of the smaller ones at some point in the next term or two. His sister can inherit any that aren’t totally trashed - although she only wears joggers for PE!

I seem to have forgotten to order my daughter any new polo shirts on the other hand. And she’s grown about three inches this summer 😬

I've just realised I've focused so much on sorting dd for new school that I didn't get ds any school shorts 😐

I was in Asda buying school shoes for my 6 years old at 7pm.

Suddenly thought, oh shit. She’s going back to school tomorrow.

In my defence, I’ve had to focus on uniform for her sister, going into year 8 in an incredibly strict school with a stupidly expensive uniform that you can only get from one shop.

6 year olds school doesn’t really care.
