    I sometimes wish Ryan didn't realise he was different, because it does makes him sad occasionally. But he's so eloquent about it when the mood takes him, he really surprises me.

    Stu had a nice early finish today, so it was great that he made dinner because he's a much better cook than me! :o
    but think about it the other way if he didn't know he was 'special' he may be even more confused and upset about other peoples reactions.
    i find myself saying to dan quite often 'never mind' when people(kids) have called his name ran off that sort of thing, i'm glad his intelligence allows him to stay slightly 'innocent'

    hey - we're all 'different' Snags, and Ryan should be proud to be able to explain what makes him so unique so very eloquently, confidently and politely, it will probably stand him in very good stead in the future when he can talk about himself to others - peers or teachers etc

    Who knows, he may grow up and end up working for a related charity, or some kind of 'campaign' group and be a top bod 'champion' talking about the condition to conferences!

    (fancy lending Stu to me one evening - I fancy a night off doing the cooking!!!!!!)

    Even if they bounce a bit up - so what - the stress of watching them wobble up and down and the risk of them dropping and the wacthing and worrying wouldn't be worth it... would drive me up the wall.... you have to be able to afford to lose to enjoy gambling or just a bit unhinged to put yourself through the watching and rollercoaster bits....

    I am very offended :rotfl:

    Sounds like a lovely day hunny!
    I just made a gorgeous tea (if I don't say so myself...)-beef stew made in the slow cooker in HM giant yorkshire puddings! Even OH was impressed and gave a compliment!
    Between you and me on new laptops, it should be interesting trying to read posts...

    That dinner sounds fab, bunny - any leftovers for a hungry hypno?

    LOads of stew left Hypno (shouldn't have to cook for at least a day or so...) but no YP. I can warm up some pre-made ones if you'd like?

    I can make some more YPs - so just the stew bunged my way would be much appreciated :D

    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:
