Crossing my fingers for both of you today. She'll be fine, so will you. Have a stiff drink and go wander round Bon Marché and buy something unsuitable.
Princess Perfect once said, while in moyenne section of maternelle, that she didn't want nor need to learn how to read as all she wanted to do when she grew up was to be a mother anyway....I did point out to her that I was the one reading her bedtime stories....She did change her mind at some stage, it seems, as she is now an avid reader. I'm sure La Fille will change her mind too!
The move to France was only supposed to be for a couple of years, not forever. Then I met The Frenchman. Then I had La Fille. Now there's no way back. But La Fille, to whom a horse is a cheval and a frog is just pond life is still half English. So before the Gallic nation claims her for its own, sprinkles her with garlic, sautés her and swallows her up whole we make regular escapes on the Eurostar. And we have discovered the grass is various shades of green either side of the Channel.
