Happy New Year!!!

Welcome to 2010 everybody, hope everone had a lovely NYE and this year is kind to us all.

It's been a relatively quiet one for us over here, just plodding along, playing, getting on with things, eating, baking, and drawing. We do however, have one bit of news....... Cerys is going back to school tomorrow!!!!!! Yikes!!!!! I nearly fell off my chair when the doc said so on Monday, and she's so excited. They have taken her off the anti-rejection completely now, which means her immune system should kick in, and all being well and the transplant has done it's job, be able to protect her. She's gained a nice bit of weight now, and our consultant says she's at a normal weight for her size,extra good news!!

So, tomorrow is back to school!!! She may not be able to do a full day yet, but we'll see how she gets on. It's a very, very, VERY strange feeling, it's one of the milestones we've been aiming for, yet I still have a knot of fear in my tummy, it kinda follows me around like those nasty looking creatures on the stop smoking adverts on the tellybox, anyone know what i'm on about?! It's kinda there now, and gets ever so slightly more intense when I'm not with her, but I'm fully aware that she can't be with me forever!! Chances are she'll be absolutely fine, just difficult to accept when she's been the 1 in a 100 before.........SLAP ME!!!! Right, she has her new uniform ready, new lunchbox and is a proper eager beaver...will be sure to take pics, and post them tomorrow too =)

Apart from that, we're pleased to say it's been a quiet January so far. We had some snow, not as much as many parts though, but we made the most of it over the course of several days.








It was Iona's birthday too, made a cake of course......





Grandad had some good news on Monday too, it looks as if his wrist is healing and he won't be needing surgery. Thats pretty much it, just wanted to keep everyone up to speed! So wish us luck for tomorrow, and I'll bring you the precious pics of first day at school take 2!
Much love,
Melanie
