<hug> megs - it is so hard to say goodbye to them when they start school. It's like they stop being completely yours any more. It's exciting to watch them learn and thrive, though.

Pandora, so glad the paeds appt went well! It was good to get checked out, but nice to be reassured.

Re birthday parties - we are having a get together for Tom, mostly with family and his godparents and a couple of other friends (like the priest who baptised him and her husband). We don't usually make a big fuss of first birthdays but it's a good opportunity to get together with people. It makes me sad that my eldest won't be there - she's becoming a JW and they don't celebrate birthdays, so she won't come to any anymore.

Tom is going through a really destructive phase. He's just tearing up everything. And now that he's walking everywhere, it's like a whole new world has opened up and he's a MONSTER. LOL. He's over all his bugs though and back to his usual sunny self, which is marvellous.

Have a lovely Easter, everyone.
