    Hope the bills thing is easing a little.

    Positive vibes certainly heading from this direction!

    Those cakes are amazing, you are so talented.
    I've been thinking of you all day, wondering how you were coping.

    My thoughts are with you all at this time. x

    Thanks for all the kind thoughts.

    I have kept myself busy today a meeting with Social Services took up most of the afternoon and I have just finished building a rapid fire dragon fighter supposed to be 6+ who are they kidding I love lego building but this was a challenge taken me about 90 minutes :(

    Still there will be one very happy boy in the morning :D

    Kids have been to Chester Zoo today on a school trip my little boy liked the dinosaurs best not too keen on the real animals and my little girl liked the monkeys with the pink bums :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Looks like I will not be having my little baby after all I am very sad about that I was really looking forward to having a little baby in the house I have missed not having a young baby about :( and my other foster child is likely to be with us in some way or other until at least December which was far longer than originally planned as he was supposed to leave us on Wednesday instead that will just be an interim court hearing when the next stage of the plan will be decided if somebody actually decides what that should be :mad:
