Too many too mention. Every time I see them use their manners and my heart bursts a little!

Callum the first time he said daddy. He is our oldest and my husband just about melted. That made all those sleepless nights worth it. We told them yesterday they are getting a new brother/sister and he wrote me a whole letter today at school about what that means to him. It made me realise he is not the little boy I think of him as but as a child rapidly approaching his teens.

Francesca - is riding in age groups far above her young years and excelling, she is in qualifying for horse of the year show right now. She has done a lot to make us proud but I am pleased and proud that she inherited the riding stuff from me and is doing well.

Anastasia - no mure teers, mama. At two years old she taught me anything I could ever need to know about love, heart ache, pain, happiness, what it means to be brave and fight against the odds.

Romilly - She is using sign language to communicate and every day (10 months old) is signing something new. Milk, wet, more, up, down.

I don't have any, but a neice once told me that I was a very funny man (not in that way!), that really made my day...I then told her that I wasn't trying to be and she looked really confused...think she was about 6 years old at the time.

Sorry to post straight after Starry, seems insensitive - for which I sincerely apologise, but my most rewarding moment was my beautiful baby daughter coming out of a meningitis crisis, age nine months. I'll always be grateful to the skill and compassion of the doctors and nurses at the Royal Alex.
 








I was very pleased to get a phone call from my daughter, just 15 minutes ago, with the excellent news that she will graduate with a 2.1 honours degree.

I think that ranks high enough to merit a post on this thread.

It does. That's what my daughter got for her mathematical physics degree. Congrats to your daughter.

I don't have any kids, and nor will I ever have, but I have a cousin who has just turned four and who loves when I go to visit and we make words with those little magnetic letters you can get, the kind you stick on the fridge.

Apparently I'm 'cool' and I'm his favourite cousin, which is nice enough.
