I'm so sorry for my ridiculously late reply ladies I really appreciate all of your comments - life has just been so busy lately I haven't been on BB.

We have booked in to see a psychologist that specialises in building resilience in kids. He is part of the Pathways program that runs in schools all over Australia. He did a talk at our local C & K and I was really impressed with what he had to say. He will be working with all of us - not just DD. I was worried about sending my 4 year old to "therapy" but he assures me his approach is family based. My plan is to come away with some great strategies to help DD through any rough patches life throws at her. And we all know there will be plenty of those Anyway, our first appointment is next weekend so I will keep you posted.

Totally off subject - but what's with the new smilies. I'm not feeling the love for them...

Thanks again for all of your support and kind words
