    Well done you! I'm going to have a look through your first diary to see if I can pick up any tips. My kids are teenagers and always asking for pocket money.

    IA - I wish you all the best for the visit tomorrow. I really don't think anyone would bother going out on a home visit just to say 'no thanks'. It's much more likely they just want clarification of some point or a face to face impression because your first visit went so well and GP may have been over-cautious in his letter so they just want to check. Maybe they've finally realised a tiny bit of the form isn't filled in right or they need more details.

    Whatever I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for you tomorrow.

    Hi Sarah keep your pecker up (!lol). They would be daft to turn you down, just think of everything you've got going for you, your experience in the nursery, what a great mum and wife you are, everybody on here that loves you ,etc etc. Keeping everything crossed for you and sending lots of positive vibes and hugs xxx

    I wouldn't expect anyone to look for a spotless house with two kids in it. Please try and not panic and just invite her in like she is just a friend round for coffee no biggie. If you are more at ease (at least on the outside) then she will get a better vibe off you and she might not be in the mood she seemed to be today. I think it is time to dig the choccy biccies out, no one can be horrible to you if you have just given them a P-P-P-Penguin.

    Sending you massive hugs and lavender calming thingies. Camomile tea too.

    I don't envy you though as I am rarely dressed let alone fit for company at that time in a morning.
