    I actually quite like my 'super auntie' role to 2 neices and a nephew. I get all the good bits - and the lie ins!!! :rotfl:

    Going shopping with my 13 year old neice at the weekend - I am her hero! She doesn't see me as old, fat or poor - just a vision with fabulous shoes!!! :j
    Sometimes it's hard to walk in a single woman's shoes - that's why we need really special ones!

    It is a seldom advertised fact that having a child can mean not having another lie-in for about 18 years :eek:

    Ooh! I like the sound of that. :D

    Have been thinking that if I have a baby now, when I go to collect it from school the other children will say, "why is your grandma picking you up?":o

    I really am feeling very broody though. icon9.gif I have these periods of "what if?" :o
