    Thank you, that means a lot. The moment I walked in I was shown photos of Eleanor with Scarlett. My family don't get it, they've never been in my position so I don't know why I was expecting some sensitivity.

    Had a lovely day out with J and the children. Abbie chose to hold my hand pretty much the entire time or was dragging me off to see things. I'll share some photos later

    Why would she not want to hold your hand and to be with you? I've seen a post on FB about how you were playing hopscotch with her too? I can't see cruella ever doing anything like that with her. Be proud of the person you are and the amazing figure you are going to be in their lives.
    Do a little of something that makes you happy every day!

    Yes, there's a small balcony area outside the upstairs part of the café and she kept me out there for ages playing hopscotch and she did try and get me playing hide and seek... a little hard when everything was glass...

    She actually refused to hold J's hand, she just wanted to hold my hand and show me things. I really enjoyed it.

    Penguins!!!

    Love penguins! It sounds like you’ve already given her joy - never underestimate the value of that in a child’s life
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    I'm not seeing that but I'll accept you think that.

    Going to meet Eleanor tomorrow. Looking forward to cuddles and dreading it at the same time...

    You are doing great. I am so pleased to hear that the children had a good time. It sounded like a good time.
