You guys have no idea how much it means to know that you care so much & think so much of me when you've never met me.
Specially when I don't think much of myself at all.
Thanks just for listening.

Skye hun you made the decision to move yourself and the kids to a new place for a new start. It was an amazingly brave and corageous thing to do and you should be proud of yourself.I dont have to have met you in person to know what a great job you do with your kids and the ups and downs you have had.YOU need to take care of you too and stay strong and be proud you took a stance and did what was right for you all. YOu know you can come on here and vent and if you need someone to talk to in person am happy to email my number so you can pick up the phone and just let it all out. YOu have loads of support and people who care about you so dont forget it ok.
*hugs*

Wow Prama, you are super organised. I really am thinking that I'll just make it small no fuss bbq in the park. I don't feel like having people over messing up my house.

lol danni - it'll be too hard to clean the house and clean up afterwards. that's why we are having a bbq at the park too. we've invited 40, adults and kids, and us included.

I for one feel very close to everyone in our baby buddy group. We are all on a journey and on it together. We all have a bond imo. You are a highly valued member of this group. I have done this in the past and really need to do it again...go look into a mirror, look yourself in the eyes and repeat these words "I am highly valued, I am special" and any other motivational words you would like to use. Do not stop looking at yourself in the eyes. I guarentee you will cry, but doing this regularly especially when you are in a state of low self esteem is powerful and can change your outlook. There is absolutely nothing wrong with talking yourself up to yourself. Also, while you're looking into the mirror, speak positive things you would like for your future. You have to maintain eyecontact with your reflection though.

Ah prama it sounds great..I am sure first birthdays are for us parents to celebrate the fact that WE made it through the first year not the kids *LOL* I love parties with loads of people and fuss we have lots of family ones and a huge xmas party mum and I love to entertain and cook. We are doing the park too we have one with a great playground and bbq's. I am making the very hungry caterpillar for Wills cake. Gosh some of us will be talking about having our next babies before you know it and which schools to send our kids too *L*

hehe. i know first birthdays are for us arent they! yup, so true, we made the first year, so much to learn.. but what a wonderful year.
i love big family stuff, coming fr a huge family.. but i get anxious having ppl in our hse cos it's small and cant fit a lot of ppl in.. and the cleaning up.. i think i clean up more so ppl dont judge my house!
i cant wait till we know and rebuild but we have to postpone again cos it's notteh best economic time now

Well today was the day ( well thursday is officilay) but work started back today and I went in to help the girls set up and get organised etc. I left Will with mum and was fine..worked most of the day had anice lunch with the girls and bought some enw toys etc for the room. Got home about 3.30 to pick Will up took him home for anap and a cuddle and promplty burst into tears. I cired for over an hour as it finally sunk in that I was going back to work in a reduced capacity yet again ( no longer room leader as only 2 days)AM not sure why I got so emotional even snapped at Nick becasue he didnt ask how my first day was. I know it will all be fine but its yet another change in my life and I looked at Will and stillsaw the tiniest baby in my arms who needed me.I hope all these feelings make me al the more empathetic with the parents I comfort this week. I know its hormones and tiredness and I am being a big sooky la la but I am allowed to be....arent I? L*
