End of reception

Tomorrow is the last day that Catherine will be in Reception - next term she will be in 'Year 1'. She is very excited but is going to miss her two teachers. In the morning we have been summoned to the award ceremony and it has been hinted at that Catherine may be getting an award! I have a feeling it may be for her dancing, but it certainly wont be for her attendance at school this year!!! Next year, she will be off treatment which is great as she will not miss half as much school. However, we will secretly miss 'hospital days' as it gave us a wierd sort of 'quality time' with our little girl.

Catherine is doing well on her treatment. She had chemotherapy in her spinal fluid this week and her back is still a bit sore from the lumbar puncture, but otherwise she is ok. I can't believe how energetic she is whilst still on chemo - her consultant said it will only increase when her treatment finishes! How will I cope??
