Looking forward to seeing your new plant display in its Autumn outfit then! CL style of course!
Re your previous post, I remember having school mates with same problems and they had their own special teacher sat by their side, I do hope you come to a good compromise between your son 's needs, your wishes and la Directrice's will..

I'd never heard of the bear hunt and had to Google it - found it on Youtube and I think I will likely end up narrating my activities in my head as I go along throughout the day. If I end up insane tonight it is your fault. :)

Lovely bucket and plates. Plant stand is cute too - I have no indoor plants, sadly, as I kill them all - so it's no use trying anymore.

Brilliant! Must dig the book out, hopefully we still have it.....Thanks for your pearls of wisdom re secondary schools - at least there's hope!
