Thanks Jerry, bet it will be a Grand grandchild,it will be our first and we are over the moon,
we always had a problem for mothers day as in the UK it is always the same sunday in Lent so the date changes year by year, but we always had to buy an extra card and save till May for Billys mother in Pennsauken.I was always worried that I would put the card away somewhere safe and miss the day!I have to admit it did happen ocasionally,
Great idea about Surrogate Mums day, maybe we should have a day for everyone who loves kids that would include mums,dads, grandparents ,uncles, aunts and numerous friends and family.I was on my own when the kids were young before I met Billy and I have to say that the best friends I had were from folk clubs and morris teams and they all became very supportive to my daughter and son,many of them came to my daughters wedding and indeed played during the wedding.
These friendships have grown over 35 years and now I find are continuing in Mudcat,best they all draw up a chair at this table?
