I'm sorry I only just saw your post about your wife's illnes, I hope she's completely recovered now. It's crap being ill, crap spending any time in hospital, let alone at Crimble. (Though I do recall one time in hospital as a child when I first 'saw Santa' and then sadly realised he was one of the doctors in a santa costume!)<br /><br />As the kids get older, there will be fewer bugs in your home... they do eventually grow out of catching everything. (I have no kids myself but was a nursery nurse for a period of time and remember it well...) As for the hospitals and super bugs...<br />:(<br />places best avoided if at all possible.<br /><br />Hugs to you and your wife and kids. Let's hope 2011 brings better health.Valhttp://absurdoldbird.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35009574.post-32506076989228516742010-12-29T12:37:17.163+01:002010-12-29T12:37:17.163+01:00Laura: sounds like the red crosses were painted on...Laura: sounds like the red crosses were painted on somebody elses door this year...
