    Toto,
    Hunny, ((hugs))


    Len-you're not a freak-you're a typical English family. Stiff upeer lip and all that-don't show emotions, sweep it under the carpet...I married into family exactly the same.
    Cheers Bunny wunny, I agree and whilst the Stiff upper Lip is something to e pround of and it has served this Nation and its Empire very well in the past and continues to do so, there are times when we would benefit from being slightly more humble; but not like you yanks though :D

    It's a bit different for us, we didn't realise until we were adults that the way she treated us were wrong, it was emotional rather than physical and we thought we were the normal ones and our friends were just picking on us for nothing and that they were weird. She's not out of our lives though, my sister's been quite good at cutting her out a lot but for some reason I can't do it.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    I remember being really protective of my tiny tears doll, I used to hide her right at the back of the wardrobe covered in things when I went to school, just so she didn't get hurt. Sounds silly now but I guess i was preparing for motherhood then.

    :cry:
    I hope I'm doing a pretty decent job as a mum to my crew. So there is no need to be angry, we won in the end.

    Your doing a perfect job, especially (if I remember correctly) with a special child too. keep up the good work Toto, huge hugs

    It seems as though there are a lot of raw emotions out there at the moment so ((((((hugs)))))) to those of you who are hurting.
    YOUR = belonging to you (your coat); YOU'RE = you are (I hope you're ok)

    really....it's not hard to understand :T
