OMG my hubbie was doing something in the loft yesterday and moaned about all the boxes I had up there, well he opened one and presented me with 3 pairs of hardly worn shoes, size 7 (small child 7) they were Beths, so sweet, she is now size 6 (adult) brought tears to my eyes, but he did ask that as we are not having any more children why I have kept all Beths clothes, toys and shoes, in airtight containers.

i did that about 6 years ago when little miss divadee was 5ish i have still got one big box of baby stuff i couldnt bear to part with.
i dont know why i have kept so many empty boxes though? i am not a hoarder but obviously have a fetish for empty cardboard boxes.0 -

We get the tealight holders from asdas ( about 25p) and put in a cellophane sweetie bag with 3 scented tealights and a few chocolate love hearts or quality street n such like. The nursery (plant not childs !!!) at the local park also donates a load of plats for us to sell for mothers day too. Usually crysathamums (sp??) so if theres a park near you it might be worth asking.:AIt matters not how long a stars shines ,what is remembered is the brightness of it's light.
JAN Battle attacks cars, 3 VIP althletics tickets, fairtrade choccy .... yum
Thanks to all posters xxxx0
