and rightly so Gigi - to feel disrespected. Have you spoken to Centrelink about paying it off at a rate you can afford? We haven't left aston overnight yet - so don't feel like you are doing anything wrong. Opportunity would be the main reason - not having one. Its difficult when you don't have family near, and I am reluctant to ask anyone else to have to possibly get up in the night to deal with my 2 year old (yes Nelly I know you would do it in a heart beat...) But in reality I don't think I'm ready to leave him over night yet. It took me a while to feel comfortable to be able to leave Laura and Nathan overnight as well. Its something you have to feel ok about.

thanks for the stories about bilby. Aston's favourite tv show at the moment is Scooby doo. lol. He dances around to the music when it starts. and he is singing its very very cute. the only trouble is if they have been singing a song at day care and he wants me to sing it, sometimes it takes a while for me to figure out which one he wants! He loves to do superman with me, where I place him on my feet and hold him in the air. when he gets into the air he goes "da daaaaah" and holds his arms out lol.
