Thankyou all for your messages of sympathy on the lose of my "Pa".
It wasn't unexpected as he had been battling cancer for nearly 2 years yet it was sudden. My dad was in with him the night before and he look so well and was so alert. But he did say to my dad "your home now"...my dad and mum had gone away for the weekend...we think he might have been saying he's ready to go?

My poor dad and mum have been really affected by this a lot more than i think they realised. My Pa lived over the road from us for 50 years and would pop it everyday at least once...even when you were on the loo he would knock at the door saying he was in the kitchen waiting for his cuppa!
It's been a little over six weeks now and poor Zara still cries for him...some nights she just lies in my arms asking why did my great pa have to die? she's so switched on. at the gravesite she didn't want to say goodbye as the coffin was being lowered because she would come back and visit, she would only say "see'ya later great pa".
Even as i type this i can't stop the tears from flowing...he was one pretty special guy.

On a brighter note: my kids are wonderful. all growing fast. Zara is 5 in 5 weeks, aiden is 2.5 and cale is 6 mnths were has the time gone. Our house reno's are nearly finished, kids finally have there rooms with carpet! we have our room, just got to get the bathroom finished and living and dining areas done inside. A bit more work to do outside but i don't care bout that, just want inside done!

I hope everyone is well

Take care
