You couldn't possibly reply to everyone. 🙂

No. &MaryDoll

I thought I could but got rather far behind and found I couldnt.
Sorry to those I didnt respond to.

I could still manage some. I dont want to upset anyone.

jennilin. I echo what AuntieFlo says.

I am visiting one of my favourite places on earth ( in North Wales) at the moment, so I feel blessed. That will be compounded when my sisters join my DH and myself on Wednesday til Saturday, then it will be back down to earth!

Brilliant

wonderful.x

Sounds wondeeful.

Little steps hopefully spring is here now and we can all get some vit d and feel better.

My three month old granddaughter is a complete joy. She is now engaging with others and smiling. What a miracle new life is!

I've a trip to make from Euston Underground to the O2 arena. Apparently I need the Jubilee line? Could anyone tell me where to change and finally get off, please? I've tried tfl. SO confusing!

jenilin . This is the very worst time in your life. Sending you vibes of strength, with love.

I dont personally know the answer Kim19.
Hope someone on GN is able to help.

kim19 take metropolitan line from Euston Square to Baker Street (it stops at Great Portland Street then Baker St) . At Baker Street take the Jubilee Line heading towards Stratford (not Stanmore which is the opposite end of the line) once on the Jubilee line it’s 10 stops to North Greenwich which according to the O2 arena website is where you need to get off. I’m not very fast at typing so you probably know this by now otherwise hopefully this has helped

fancythat I don’t think anyone would expect you to reply to them individually especially after seeing how many replies your ‘nice’ thread has. Hope things are getting better and seeing how your thread has grown gives you some happy distraction it has me

Thank you SO much, Lollin. Think I understand that but will write it down for a step by step journey. Can't tell you how grateful I am. Good old GN!

My first Grandchild, a boy was born last Saturday 8lbs 5oz and he’s an absolute beaut and perfect. I’m totally in love 💙💙💙

aw aw and aw minxie. Congratulations.

I sitll feel as if I should reply to at least some of the posts. They are most wonderful.

I didnt write that very well. I mean they are wonderful posts.

Juggernaut what a lovely story of your grandson creeping down the drive with his well written little letter. Something to treasure.
I'm similarly proud of my grandson. He's fourteen now. At birth not expected to live. He has global brain damage, cerebral palsy and is autistic. He struggles to write. It's a laborious task for him. I thought you all would like to see my Mothering Sunday card from him. He has written 'Dear Grandma, Hope you have a great day. You are the best. Love, xxxx
When he was born, two people told me it would have been better if he had died! How wrong they were. He is a joy and a blessing. Our lives have been so wonderfully enriched by having him. And what is more, he has made amazing progress. No one could have believed how well he has done, thanks to the medical profession and his wonderful parents.

This one is almost bringing tears to my eyes.
A card to treasure for you.
And well done to everyone who has helped him with all his endevours.

When you said 'a nice thread', FancyThat, I thought you were going to show us some embroidery threads!
There are some lovely ones out there.
I especially love variegated threads that go through several shades or colours as you stitch!
I hope what others have written here has cheered you up!! x

We spent an hour in the garden with our almost two year old grandson this morning. He chattered and explored and found everything so new and exciting. It reminded me to look and find the joy in little things.

Ali08 No chance sadly! One of the subjects I know nothing about. There are some nice hobbies about, but I am useless at them.

The posts continue to cheer me thank you. x

ginny I used to think of a boring day as, well, boring. But I have learnt that they are no such thing.
Watching young children is enchanting.

Wow really? Don’t think this comment was called for!

That was to the person that stated this thread was me, me, me! I didn’t feel that at all. Just a nice way of starting some positivity during times of equal stress!

Thank you Knittyintrovert. It was me that thought it might come across in that way. Glad others have found this thread helpful as well.

A lovely thread.
I go into a local primary to read with 6 and 7 year olds. Such a joy to be with them and always amazes me how children learn actually learn to read!
