My little nephew was born this morning! I'm so delighted, he is a long awaited bit of joy in our family. The last few years has seen a lot of deaths including the 2 most amazing women (our mum and our nan, both on the same day, 4 years apart).
So, It means a trip to see my brother and his wife, a gift and some flowers for the grave (I have to go visit while I am there). But today I don't care because it's only money and happy days like this come along so rarely.
Had to share my happy news, I am bursting with smiles
