    Hi there, thank-you so much for the birthday wishes. It started off well with lots of presents from colleagues at school and the children singing to me in Assembly. Unfortunately I then heard my Dear Mum had died this morning so now home from school in a bit of shock.
    Hugs to all those in pain and hope everyone has a good day.

    So sorry Miffy xx
    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
