I had to laugh, but it has made me feel all warm aswell!

The bus picked Penny up this morning and there is an older lad who sits at the back of the bus, he must be about 17 or 18. Lovely lad. Anyway this morning dd got on the bus and i nopticed that the older boy was sitting on the seat behind her instead of at the back. As soon as dd went to her seat, this lad stands up and says to the escort "please please please please" and the escort yes 'of course you can X"

so he goes and sits by my dd, gives her a big kiss and a hug and they have gone off to school together holding hands

the escort said he has been nagging everyday to sit by dd, as 'he loves her' hahaha

That is so nice!

Awwwwwwwww!

thats really cute

Awww, I'm filling up! How lovely!

aw how lovely fio

There is a lad who goes in my friend's dd2 taxi with her to a SN school, and when he see me he says he loves me!!

had an update off the escort, apparently he is only 'allowed' to sit by dd on a friday 'as a treat' as he is actually quite a handful. So his treat for being good the whole week is sitting next to dd on the bus on a friday and holding her hand and helping her into her classroom

Fio, that's so lovely - bless him

Oh how sweet! Does she like having him sitting by her? I always remember sitting at a bus stop when I was about six and there was a teenage boy with DS who kept stroking my hair and beaming at me, and I was just so chuffed

yes she seems to quite like it. She is getting a bit of a madam though. She is friends with an older girl on the bus and everyday she used to sit next to her and they used to giggle all the way to school. then one day the bus came and dd refused to sit next to her shouting 'no no no' and this girl looked heartbroken () and said to dd " Ididnt want to sit next to you anyway" and dd just laughed at her, argh

I quite like her spirit though

(P.S. I seem to have knackered MSN again, it has disappeared, wasn't meaning to ignore you!)

Where I work Fio it is amazing to see how the older kids blossom when given some responsibility for the little ones. I think responsibilty is a massively important (and very underrated) aspect of development.

For work experience,helping out in the younger classrooms works really well.

One of the lads also came to do work experience in my dd's nursery and did a fantastic job.All the staff turned out for his 18th,not in a patronising way but because they genuinly wanted to share a big night with a good colleague.

arrrrh, thats so sweet!!
