Hi,
Here I am sitting on my daughters computer, after I have done my 'grandma' bit, and taken the girls to school. My daughter is doing teaching practice, and has had to find child care to cope with the extra time it takes to be a 'teacher' rather than a TA, and each time she needed help over the last two years I have been having treatment, so this time I'm pulling my weight.
