Letter to my hubby and kids........

[sunflower]

Hi everyone,

It's been great hearing your news. Sounds like lots of exams and tests going on Am sure you've all done/are doing your best. Thinking of you as you go through them. Try not to stress too much

Glad you like your phone 'a'. Hope it's everything you expected. Do you like it more than *? Sounds like you've been buying up the whole of town, just as well you got a job lol. Hope you've still got your holiday birthday money, and car insurance money, set aside. Bet you're well excited about your holiday coming up. Plenty of sun cream, remember.

Are you feeling better from your cold now 'b'? Hope so. Bet you had fun having * sleep over. Hope you didn't get up to too much mischief! Glad you could treat yourself in Primark. You still got the other £50 to spend? Don't worry about maths. So long as you can add up enough to do the important things in life, like shopping How's things with *?

Sounds like you've been working really hard at school 'c'. Well done. I like going on my laptop too, to relax. What is airsoft gunning? Sounds fun. Is your leg alright now? Glad you've been able to treat yourself to some games. Better than wasting it on sweets Do you think you still might like to do something around computers when you leave school? Have you picked your options yet?

'd', sounds like you really enjoying swimming. You'll be swimming better than a fish! Glad you can spend time with *. I'm sure a day off school for voting was alot of fun I've bought a charger for my ds now. I've also bought a wii, but haven't set it up yet. How did you enjoy goals with boys brigade? And what's this about basketball? You have alot of energy! Was Bolt good?

I hope you all had a good time at the bbq. Who ate the most?!? To give dad his running practice, you could get him to chase you up and down the stairs and all round the house and garden 'e', have you set up a fundraising page for half marathon? Let me have the link if you have. For * you can probably get a kit list from school, 'e'. I can look out for things on the list in down. 'a', have a think about what space you want/need, and we can draw up a list of pros/cons with the different options. We don't have alot of options, but we can explore the ones we have. I hope your new bed is helping you to feel more at home.

Grandad is not doing very well. You know he's really poorly and isn't going to get better. Well, he's going into the hospice for a little while so they can sort his medicine/pain relief out, and then he's going to go back home and Gran/Grandad's living room is going to be made into Grandad's bedroom. His legs aren't working properly any more and he can't get about on his own. Gran and Grandad love you all loads, and think about you often. When he's a bit more settled, we'll arrange for you to go see them.

* the hamster is a cutie. He likes his cage. Think he's becoming a bit tamer. I sat him in my dressing gown pocket the other day, which was cute. The people where I live like to come in and see him.

I hope you are all getting on as well as you can with each other. I love you all so, so much, and really miss you. There's never a day goes by where I don't think about you. You are all so beautiful, and I am very proud of each and every one of you. I know it's hard not being able to see each other at the moment, but it's for the best just now, and my heart is with you, even if I'm not with you physically. And it's just for now.

Better get my lazy bum out of bed and get dressed. Hugs to you all, including you 'e'. Thanks for being such a great dad to the kids. xxxxxx
