Great feedback then the outburst with the toes!

Amy attended the girls parents evenings this week and both their teachers couldn't have been more complimentary about the girls and their hard work and effort in the first half of this term. Lucy, after a difficult start this year, has settled in and is doing very well with lovely comments about her commitment in doing things like missing break time to finish her work of her own choice and not interrupting! Anna's teacher (who sound like she has a real soft spot for Wiggle) said that she is doing really well and has made a fantastic start to her school career! Apparently they have a weekly date on a Friday for a cuddle before she leaves. Which leads me onto the toes.
Poor Lucy has developed a real and very genuine phobia of having her toe nails cut. This is now not a simple task at all. We have tears, panicking, lashing out and it is impossible. Having got very frustrated indeed, I finally came to some agreement with her about the way forward and forty minutes later all ten toenails were cut. Very stressful indeed. She gets so upset and I am not sure I have come across something so difficult to get her to be part of in her seven years as yet....
