    Huge congratulations!!! How massively exciting for you.

    A very large cardboard box or laundry basket, filled with left-over Xmas wrapping paper .... I recall this used to create hours of fun!
  • Just a little poem for the OP, which my (adoptive) mother gave to me when I was young:

    'Not flesh of my flesh nor bone of my bone,
    But still miraculously my own.
    Never forget for a single minute
    That you grew not under my heart, but in it.
    '

    Always brought tears to my eyes.

    Have a great life with your little girl.

    Has she come to live with you yet?
