oh jodie, thankyou so much, you wrote something that really sunk in and put things into perspective "it will be hard on MY emotions" it wont neccesarily be that hard on Archie's emotions but it will just about kill me, i need to remember that all kids have to deal with separation sooner or later, i am gonna be tough and just leave him. Thanks so much you have really helped. i hope the new baby is a great sleeper to make up for Shaun! Only 2 days to go!!! I am so excited for you! GL

satya - thankoyu so much!

thanks again Michelle. Now i just have to work out how to write his name on his comfort toy "tigger"....
