Well Happy Boxing Day everyone!

First of all big big hugs to Ginger . My dear friend: not being able to talk about it IS part of grieving - don't be so hard on yourself. I don't talk about this much on BB but I can see, hear and feel Spirit - my experience doing psychic readings and healings has taught me that our special loved ones are often with us after they have passed over. Most people only ever catch a fleeting sensation or glimpse - we are too wrapped up in our physical senses to be able to perceive the energy - but I am 100% sure your Mum has been with you as you struggle with your terrible grief, and that she sees and knows what a joy and consolation L (and esp J) has been to you and especially your dad. xxx

What a wonderful day we had yesterday. As you know it all starts on Christmas Eve...very first pressie off the rank was a bag of Avon Little Blossom stuff... DD was absolutely taken with it - the lipbalm most of all - and spent the whole night getting each bottle out and putting them back - and lipbalming her mouth...didn't want to put it down long enough to open any of her other presents LOL. The big hit yesterday was the wooden cutting vegetables - and then later the scooter from her aunty...she scootered up and down the hallway all afternoon LOL. DD1 was very well pleased with her "loot" (as she calls it) too. We stayed out quite late both nights and were rewarded with a biiiiiig sleepin this morning - really going to chill out and try to maintain that holiday feeling at least thru until Tues...DH is finally starting to relax and smile a bit a more, poor man needs all the R&R he can get.
