Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Yesterday I picked my sister, hubby and kids from the airport, their daughter ran upto me and jumped into my arms and gave me an awesome hug , their son wasn't quick enough, but still got a hug.
Their daughter also text my mum on monday (my mums birthday) to say happy birthday and that she was looking to going on holiday with us on Saturday, I should add she was on holiday on Portugal.
This bit is a mix.
I have had my contract extended to the end of October, and I have heard the guy I'm temping for may not see February next year

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Took our youngest to have an MRI brain scan yesterday. Due to his various problems and not understanding what was being done and why, giving him the general anaesthetic proved to be the traumatic experience we'd dreaded as we had to hold him down whilst the mask was held to face and we waited for the gas to put him out. He's incredibly strong and was screaming and struggling for what seemed like an age before he finally succumbed and went off to sleep with us feeling awful for putting him through so much stress and fear. It was a few hours before we were able to get him home and he was understandably grumpy and subdued for the rest of the day whilst we were preoccupied with worrying about any possible adverse reaction to events.
This morning, however, we were woken as usual by his happy voice and smiling face - there's really no better alarm call in the world I can tell you! All may not be forgotten but we've clearly been forgiven.....

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Ah that is really hard and like any parent if we could we would want to take the pain away for them and feel useless as well and guilty when we have to do things that are out of our control
I'm so so glad that he woke thing morning with a big grin on his face to melt your hearts. That sounds so so lovely

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Well I'll be signing off soon as I'm going on holiday tomorrow and I'm taking my sisters kids (10 & 7).
Happy days ahead as this is their first holiday without their mum and dad.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Going to my step sisters civil partnership today, should be amazing!, 6 years both her and her partner have been together.
Couldn't be more happier for them .

You did what you had to do for his sake Osem, it must have been breaking your heart that he didn't understand it was for his own good. Happily he doesn't hold any grudges. Special children need special parents like you.

Now that is what I like. A fair share out of the chores. You do them and Natalie gets to watch and supervise.
Seriously though, I am so happy for you both, finding a life partner is one of the greatest joys.
Oh and didn't you say some tome ago that once Natalie moved in she would be joining CF?
