    Hi Lucielle, how are you? We are all fine. I am debt free now although OH still has about 10k outstanding but that is getting paid off in instalments (interest frozen as it ended up with a debt collector years ago) The third baby that we were debating whether to try for about 4 years ago is now 7 weeks old. So glad we waited until we were in a better position financially as it hopefully means I can have longer off work. I am hoping to have 14 months off if I can save enough but realistically probably 11 months. I finish my law degree in October as well so there seems to be some light at the end of a very long road!

    Hope you are all well. x

    Sounds like you're having a lovely weekend taxi! Hope the weather is sunny where you are.

    Unfortunately pouring down with rain here and has been all day so we've just been chilling in the house.

    I don't take/keep photos of these things but really should do as it's a good idea to make photo books up.

    I don't believe in the concept of hell, but if I did I would think of it as filled with people who were cruel to animals.
