As many of you may be aware, my relationship with my middly has not always been easy going, in fact in 2008 I faced the real chance of her going, she was so unhappy/aggressive/disruptive that our whole family was being pulled this way and that and our tethers stretched, I received a lot of support from my cyber pals, and received support from PAS.We approached birthday season May and things were still a bit fraught to say the least, school were also having a lot of problems with her. Hubby and I had decided in Feb that regardless of behaviour or outcome we were going away on holiday as we did not go away in 2008, we decided that we would finally go abroad, get some sand sea and sun, we did not tell the children. So when we hit birthday season and things were still rocky, we made tentative enquiries with family just in case she really could not come with us (it would not have been fair on the other two) but one week after our hectic May/june birthday season something changed, my middly who I do love so very much (yeas I love the others just as much) became the child I knew was in there, kind/caring/attentive/reasonable, I have spent over 12 weeks with this charming/funny/gorgeous girl, my heart is singing, all the trials and tribulations are just a memory and I am enjoying every minute with her.I''m not sure how long this will last, but I am just going to enjoy her.Love and best wishes to everyone.June.

I just love that time, when you can see the person that you always knew was in there (and couldn't seem to get out). Really lovely to hear, long may it last.Butterfly
