  • I have so many happy memories of today, whitewing. It was so sweet when WaSp stood between us and put his arms around us both with a smile on his face. I really do think today meant a lot to him, too. He has been patting me on the head every time he has walked past me ever since, I think he was very touched by how close MIL and I still are.

    That is so cute, whitewing! Now I want a cat to try it with!

    Hahahahaha, funnily enough MIL patted Sir P on the head. Of course he came with me! On a sad but sweet point after seeing Sir P she showed me her doll she has had since she was a child. It is china and her clothes are tattered and torn, she is chipped and very fragile but she is adorable. MIL said that when she isn't here to look after her anymore Rebecca becomes mine. We did talk a little about her will which she set up with her neice so WaSp doesn;t know anything about it and she doesn't want him to know. She is splitting her money between WaSp, BIL, SIL and her granddaughter and she has left me some items that meant a lot to her that she has had for a very long time. She asked me to promise that I will keep them safe. Rebecca is one of them.

    People, talking of snail mail, I have volunteered us on this thread to take care of Vikki_Louise's Wish 4 on this thread. I hope you are all willing or I will have to do it all by myself. WaS, your letter to SIL could be one of the 30.

  • I will do four snail mail, whitewing! One to SIL, one to my teacher friend, one to my friend in America and one to MIL! I always write to my teacher friend and friend in America at this time of year anyway!

    I will send one of DD's pictures to my great aunt.

    A card to a relative who is going through a rough time.

    A 'just because' gift to a friend.

  • Aw, how lovely whitewing. I wanted to send a thank you card and letter to MIL anyway for making me feel so welcome so four is no problem at all.
