meg that's great news about your friend... i feel so happy for her and i don't even know her! good luck starting back at work too. i work two days a week as a Teacher of the Deaf. I have done since Ainsleigh was 11 months old. I tried to go back to an office job within my field at six months, but could not leave her. She was not crawling yet, and I think her being immobile made it harder for me. silly, i know!

ummm.... what else was said, i'm so brain dead! jodes - Easter is early next year... so we'll be in Townsville from Wed 19th - Tues 25th March. Can't wait to meet you if you can make it down.
