Hello everyone, I hope you all had a restful Christmas.
Christmas day went nicely, the kids were amazing and kept me strong with their hyperactivity lol.
I think the expectation of how the day would be was far worse than the reality of it. Yes it was hard with Dad not being there but the day just kind of ticked along, i had my tears first thing and thought ok that is it i have cried now, now i'll enjoy the day with my family.
So today is Dec 27th 2010. Today we are scattering my Dads ashes at his favourite place. I don't know how i feel about this tbh. This time last year we were still crying over dads diagnosis but at least we felt there was a little hope, now it is done, he has been gone nearly 6 months now and this is the last thing we can do for him. Its what he wanted, something he'd joked about since we were kids, it's not entirely legal where he is going but hey ho it's what my dad wanted and it is what he will get.
So then by the end of this week we have a new year, a new start, hopefully a better year. Well we have a new life to celebrate at Christmas my sister told us she is pregnant, she is 25, has just bought her 1st house with her fiance and i am soooooo excited i am going to be an aunty. It is the best gift my dad could have sent us this year. A new life, a bundle of love just can't wait for baby to arrive now.
Lots of love to you all. Heres to a better new year for us all. xxxxxxxxx
