Proud Momma

Ellie has never been the child to fill trophy cabinets or walls with insurmountable certificates.  We have known this since day dot and we accept it.  We have never forced her to do things that she is not capable of and I'd pretty much bet that we have never been labelled as a pushy parents.  We have allowed her to develop at her own rate (with support and back up when she may have fallen back - of course)......... its been wonderful to watch her find her own sweet way.

Tonight's parents evening was a real eye opener, mind and came as a bit of a shock!

Her Lecturers and mentors praised her enthusiasm, hard work and willingness to finish her work as beautifully as she can.  She likes to flourish her work with drawings and examples to a creative end - we seriously could not have been more proud of their praise.  Surprised but very very proud. We may not get the piles of high fives, gushing moments of excessive achievement or letters from school highlighting how brilliant she is.   Nor, on the same token, do we receive calls about truancy, bad behaviour or issues with performance either.  Her current success is telling us that she is progressing really well. 

In addition, on Tuesday, Ellie wanted to organise an event at college for tomorrow.  She practically begged the SENCO to allow it to happen.  He gave her the thumbs up and she set to work creating posters and excitement leading up to a Comic Relief fund raiser by way of "Who can eat a donut without licking their lips?" competition - involving both Lecturers and students.  Of course muggings here, is footing the donut donation bill and Easter egg prize but to see the joy in her organisational skills far outweighs the cost ;)

So happy with our girl right now but then we were before and probably always will be - regardless of what she achieves in college.

Love Kirsty
