To go to the shop, not drop the pound coin, buy a pint of milk. All by himself, for the first time

Oh hope it made it and the ensuing cup of tea, bowl of custard or milk shake was enjoyed.

Yay!
We have a postbox at the bottom of our hill. It's always been a rite of passage that our kids go down to the postbaox on their own. Me sitting nonchalantly on the sofa, Kermit peering after them from behind the bins.

DD did her first trip to Waitrose (very close) recently with a fiver in her hand, returned with the change, £1 short. Insisted she must have been short-changed. Insisted for a good couple of hours, then admitted she'd bought sweets and eaten them on the way home.
I have reverted to making her come with me when I need something from the shop.

Unfortunately he he ruined the little bit of trust he'd gained by not getting off at the right bus stop. He meets me at the office, there are two bus stops, one is at a large very busy junction, he is banned from this bus stop, the other has a pedestrian crossing and is much smaller. Guess where he got off whilst I was waiting for 15 minutes in the rain, whilst he was sat in reception!

That could be a great beginning to a film..... The wrong bus stop.
But congratulations on his rite of passage!
