Oh Wendy, it is exciting that you could be a mummy by the end of the week and I'm so glad that you are feeling calm hun. It would be great if the pipster was born on Friday, as it's my birthday and we could have a double celebration!!
I've been dreading my birthday this year, for obvious reasons but, like you Den, I've decided to try and be happy and enjoy myself, knowing that is what my Dad would want. I'm too am going to do something special on Father's Day, in memory of my wonderful Dad and, of course, hubby will be expecting to be pampered all day!
Em - you might feel as though you are heading down as the first anniversary nears but, you know that we won't let you fall too far as we will all be here waiting to pull you back up my friend XX
Back later X
stupid machine just deleted my post before i'd posted it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
anyway i think it said:
Em
don't feel bad hun. I know exactly how you feel and what you are going through. it feels like such a short time since we lost our precious dads and yet instead of saying to people, i just lost my Dad, i have to say, i lost my dad last year - it doesn't feel right because it still feels so raw.
The next few weeks will be tough but it's just another stage and another step to walk along and get through - and we will get through it especially with this lot on here pushing and pulling us through!
Oh and don't you be claiming top rambling spot - that's me that is!! :-))
much love to you and to everyone else - sorry focused on Em today as I hope that i can help her as i feel the same at the mo, but my thoughts remain with you allxx
