Default Finally, some good news.

I remember mentioning a few weeks ago that my DD was coming for Easter. Well.... I can hardly believe it, but she'll be here in a matter of days! She flies in next Tuesday and will be here for a whole 7 days. You've no idea how much I'm looking forward to her visit as I've not seen her for a whole year. 1 year is far too long for a mamma not to see her DD, and I imagine you can guess just how much I'm looking forward to Tuesday.

I've been feeling down lately, and her visit is "just what the doctor ordered".

Not only that, but another good thing has happened. Our eldest son announced his engagement at the weekend! They haven't told us yet when they're planning to get married, but a wedding in the not too distant future is also very exciting.

I wanted to share my news knowing that you'll all be happy for me.

My kids are grown too, but they still look forward to the family Easter basket. MMMmm, chocolate covered marshmellow bunnies.

Sounds like such happy times Koala. I hope you enjoy Easter with your DD and make some new memories to cherish and hold on to.

I noticed you lived in Australia. My dream is to visit your country one day. First I have to hit the lottery though.

It is (was) a happy day, Anne! Have a splendid visit and throw back a few margaritas for me at the wedding.

I'm SO glad to hear that your DD is coming to see you soon Anne!!! I hope you have a lovely time with her and have lots of fun!! I know it's hard when close relatives dont live near you - my grandad lives in Spain and we only see him twice a year at the most now.

Congratulations on your sons Engagment - that is great news and im so happy for you all!! Please send your son and his fiance our best wishes!! We want lots of wedding pictures when the wedding comes!!!

So sorry to hear that things have been so tough for you lately - I hope things start getting better from now!!
