She is too small for a sleeping bag and too little for a backpack, but my little treasure is on her way to her Daddies place for a sleepover. She has never been away from home without her brother or me, ever, so this is yet another first for her.
A month after Matt left, I made an effort to arrange for her to visit her Dad. We agreed on every Tuesday for four hours and every second weekend, Friday until Sunday. I wanted to do this to add structure and routine for Nevaeh (who was wanting him to come home and was asking for him every few hours) but it was also suggested when speaking to DHS as a way to improve her behavior since the split.
This is a massive step for her today so I really hope she has a lot of fun and the two spend some good bonding time together. She loves her father so at least I know there will be a lot of smiles.
In her bag, along side her clothes, she packed her hair spray, hair brush, toothbrush, two books to read before bed and on leaving she also took her puppy Ralphy (as seen in this picture and this post) as well as her pram.
See you in two weeks Mum!
She shouted from the back seat as they drove away..

That is an adorable picture! I don't know how she is even standing upright with that backpack on. Hope she does well on her first solo sleepover and you get to enjoy a little quiet time yourself!
