Candy: Just checked out Ryan's new piccys Lookin' good there! He's actually very similar to Niall, or maybe it's just the kind of expressions and poses... It's great you've taken so many... I find it hard to get the time... and I MUST remember to get some of ours printed out on photo paper! Imagine if we lost them all because our 'pute died! So far they are all digital. Poor Wade hasn't had many taken of him lately.... there's heaps of Verity at his age... better try to do something about that. Yeah, Verity is a great help... she's the best "mistake" I've ever made LOL That sounds a bit weird but she's a great example of how sometimes it's best not to plan your life too much... I didn't plan to have a child in my 20's but now that I have the boys she's SUCH a good help and I realise that I couldn't have "planned" it any better ie to have a daughter early then have a big gap then 2 more boys. You should have seen the expressions on the faces of the other mums at playgroup today! They couldn't believe she was my daughter, although they kept saying "oooh she looks just like you!"... Verity is almost as tall as me now (I'm 5' 7"). Of course I mentioned to them I had a daughter but I kinda think they imagined someone younger. Anyhow, she's a constant reminder for me to just "go with the flow" of what life has to offer... everything for a reason etc. Oh also Candy: hopefully you'll enjoy the feeling of closure when your divorce has gone through. My DH was married before (for 6 years) and it was a kind of bittersweet moment. They didn't really have a nasty divorce, there was little animosity, and my DH really tries to see the positive side of the relationship. Every mistake you make makes you a wiser person.

Both boys are sleeping now, after a little resistance from Wade, and I'm going to head outside now and enjoy this absolutely gorgeous day
