House move update....

The reality of having to pack up and move home again in less than 3 weeks time is really staring to sink in - just how do we manage to accumulate so much stuff! And typically, lots of junk that seems so important at the time, but is actually just that - junk!

We had a viewing last weekend and the letting agent and the prospective renters/buyers arrived at the house just as we were leaving. Poor Ben thought that that was it. We had moved out and they were moving into our home that minute and keeping all of our stuff! I have noticed that he is starting to get clingy and possessive over his things - I think it's a reaction to all this upheaval. I tried to give some of his and Jasmine;s old toys to the school as a donation to the summer fayre they are having, but he was having none of it. He blockaded the classroom door ans refused to let me give the toys to the teacher, saying that he really likes them and will miss them too much (bearing in mind that he hasn't played with them in ages, other than to throw them around the house and make clutter). I gave in and put the toys back in the car. I want both him and Jasmine to be as setlled as is possible right now, so rocking the boat is really not necessary. Hopefully the move will go smoothly, and as we are only moving around the corner, hopefully they'll settle right in, and as quickly as possible.
