As some of your know, I married a widower when I was 40 years old. I hadn't been married before and suddenly I was a stop at home full time mum of 2!! They were just 4 and 7 at the time and VERY keen that dad and I married ( I had met the children 1st )..
Well, as my previous posts indicate - the marriage has been and remains a tough challenge
BUT
the kids remain a delight!! Last week our daughter passed her Art Foundation Course with a Merit & has a place at the Uni of her choice for Sept. The yesterday our son found out that he had achieved a 1st class Honours Degree in Psychology.
I am sooooooooooooo pleased for him.. He has always found academic life a breeze and so has never really had to set himself a challenge. However last November ( after 2 and a bit years at uni partying !! ) he decided he wants to be a psychiatrist - that would mean getting a 2:1 degree or preferably a 1st. He will then spend this year at home and then go onto a 5years of medical training to become a Dr...
Well - we watched him work so hard- he let everyone know what he was aiming for and I thought that was very gutsy..
We are just so pleased for both our kids and so very proud.It's so lovely to see their life plans unfolding..
Having shared my duff family news with you all in the past I decided I would balance it with our celebration!!Hip Hip Hooray!!!!!
with my love
