Thank you gill :wub:

What a fantastic poem, i think that sums it up for adults as well as children, if my child wrote that it would of sent a shiver down my spine of proudness, well done.:thumbsup::thumbsup:

Thanks gibsonlanding, moondevil and janeymay.

I must admit, it did bring a lump to my throat as I read it out when she handed it to me. Although, I am a bit of an emotional sap at the moment!

We're at that stage with 3 weeks to go where everything we do is 'a last time' event.
Silly things like...

Our last Sunday roast at my mum and dad's house.
Our last shopping trip to Cribbs Causeway.
Our last journey to Wales to see aging relations.
Their last sleepovers with friends.
Their last sessions at swimming clubs.

etc, etc, etc.

Still doesn't seem real though!!!!!:confused:

Re: Sharing views of 12 year old daughter
 

Your welcome and goodluck in your adventure, hopefully we will be there eventually.

We are flying out in 4 weeks time to Ontario where my OH has to write the Red Seal exam, so fingers crossed that he passes so he can get a job offer and live our dream, we will get a good taster what it will be like as we are staying in Canada for 4 weeks, thankfully we have some distant family that we are staying with to cut costs down.:p

All the best:)

ah....such talent...it's all in the teaching you know!


love from her FAVOURITE teacher! (also on my way soon...great minds and all that!)

Re: Sharing views of 12 year old daughter
 

Of course it's all down to your fantastic teaching! ;)

Glad to hear that everything's moving along nicely with your move too. Great news that you've exchanged (phew!) and it looks as though we've sold too! (Offer received for our new lower asking price!) :thumbsup:

So, we'll have to come and visit sunny Alberta for a holiday next year, and you're always welcome in foggy Halifax!! :D

Re: Sharing views of 12 year old daughter
 

I think it's probably down to Briony's talent rather than my teaching but aw shucks.. :wub:...thanks honey!
Great news about the house Adele, fingers crossed it all goes smoothly. Maybe Ian won't have to return here for long in September. We'll make sure he has some company when he returns to your big empty house x
I've printed the poem off for my mum. I read it to her on the phone today and it made her cry! Bless! See the power your daughter has with words? ;)
