    We all ought to go and get some rest while we can. You too of course JulieG. We wouldn't want you to feel left out or anything.

    I begin to realise that adoption has a lot going for it. I went to London with an empty carry-cot and came back with a full one. Job done!


    Oh MONNAGRAM, If only there were more lovely people like you there would be no more lonely children or babies . :A

    Betheebee: I'm not really a lovely person, just a person who was desperate for a family and couldn't do it under my own steam. So I'm just a very, very, blessed person. My only regret is that someone else had to give birth to my lovely boys and then suffer the agony of giving them up so that I could have my longed for family.

  • Hi fellow posters

    Just a quick message to anyone who is feeling down at the moment i understand where you are coming from and if it wasnt fr my wonderful OH and my new baby boy i really wouldnt be here. So hugs to everyone:A

    OH did something wonderfully OS yesterday - well I think so anyway. He potted our LO's christmas tree and stated we didnt have a watering can. Anyway after a few minutes he came back in after making on himself..... a left over milk bottle I was saving for garden plant labels and cut a few holes out the top and hey presto.... a homemade watering can:T

    Quiet one today as OH went into hospital.

    Hope to hear news of little roo xx

    Night Night all xx

    'they didn't grow under my heart but in it.'

    Monnagran, I have a tear in my eye reading this, it is spookily almost identical to something my friend's mum said to me many years ago at her 21st celebrations, her and her brother were both adopted and couldn't have ever found more love, you have made me very cheery if teary tonight!:D
    RIP Iain
