I've messed up- haven't accepted school place!

I've just realised I forgot to accept my child's reception school place! Has anyone experienced this before? Can't believe I forgot 😭 The school sent me and email regarding to accept or decline the offer with the name and surname and everything with the deadline and i totally forgot to answer them. It was since end of April😭 will they took his place?

SPOILER ALERT!!! If you watched Toy Story 5 did you notice the theme of the movie?

Our family watched Toy Story 5 and we noticed right away the theme was screentime. Specifically toys talking about being replaced by screens

Nursery funded hours

Right so before I email the nursery and make a tit of myself can someone help me understand the following-

Currently scheduled to go back to work for 3 days, and little boy will be in nursery for 2 days (max 16 hours)

As per the new law you get 30 funded hours during term time ONLY - our nursery agrees to spread these hours through the year making it about 22.5 hrs a week (I think)

So if my boy goes for 3 days instead as work want me to poss go back 4 days…we will use 24 hrs do you think the nursery will charge us for just 1.5 hours or will they class the 3rd day as a full day?

Has anyone else experiences this please 😭🤣
If it’s not funded then there is no point in me going up to 4 days

Is there somebody else your child seeks comfort from?

I've been questioning my ability to be a good mother lately. Mine are 2 and almost 4. I feel that I'm doing my best for my kids, I might be a bit hard on them sometimes, like I wouldn't be an advocate for "gentle parenting" but I do give them love and empathy when they're upset. I have all the patience in the world for their tantrums and my partner and others will testify to that. However, when my partner or my own mother are an option instead of me, they'll call them and run to them instead of me for comforting. They do respond differently from me to their cries, but they also are very different from each other. My mother responds by emphasizing what they're crying about and practically crying with them, which my partner is very critical of. My partner on the other hand will say nothing but just pick them up and hug them then quickly redirect them. I try that method, but they only come to me if their dad or my mother isn't there.

Does anybody else's kids do this? Can anybody advise what I might be doing wrong?? I feel like my kids don't feel like I'm safe enough for them
