Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

I think this is a great idea for Zing to do.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

yes I agree that is an excellent idea :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

It's better than a good idea mate, it shows you care. The only advice I could give a mate of mine years ago in similar circumstances was to pay the maintenance on time without any fuss and hope in years to come his son would look for him, at least then he could say he did care and had no control over the situation, I'd have liked to have suggested this as well. It never happened for him, hope it does for you :tu:

When you do meet, or when she is old enough to make the decision to met you and you give the letter to her it will be something I am sure she will treasure as it will give her a taste of what it would have been like to know you as she grew up. Add photos of the puppy you would have like her to see and the big sister she could have shared experiences with.

Excellent idea. :tu:

Having to buy XL t-shirts because the shoulders, chest and back are too big to fit into large.

You and a lot of guys Zing - too often through no fault of their own! Hope you get to meet her soon. All the best to you!

Console yourself with the other things you've missed, ****** nappies, sleepless nights, toddler tantrums etc

It will all make that first hug all the more special when it happens. Hopefully soon. Chin up mate:)

I thought getting poop under your finger nails was all part of the experience.

It's proberly not a true XL, I have a shirt that I wear on special occasions, its a 44" chest and L, my other shirts that are 44" are labelled as XL, I have a T-shirt which has XXL for the same size, I would like to know whats going on with sizes.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

After a couple of months of phasing it in, our youngest is now on the recommended dose of his new epilepsy medication and we're phasing out the original one ove the next 6 weeks or so. So far no fits and no signs of any adverse reaction so it's touch wood, fingers/toes crossed and all that.... :)
