Well hello!! Just thought I would peek in and see if anybody remembers me as its been a while since I posted!

I have tried to pop on now and then but life is just so busy and one month stretches into another before we know where we are!

We are just waiting now to hear from the Surgeon to give Wyatt an assessment to see if his heart is now strong enough to have the triple by-pass surgery he so needs - fingers crossed!

My dad died 2 weeks ago :crying: and like we all get, I'm only sorry that I never had the chance to spend more time with him when I could. He's out of pain now and the last thing I would have wished was for him to prolong it, so although its a sad time for us all, we are happy that he is no longer suffering.

Ever since I came back to UK its like it was meant to be! From Wyatt being found to have a serious heart condition, to the birth of my second grandchild and then the death of my father! As well as lots of other things that tell me we came back at the right time!!!!

My wedding cake toppers are really taking off and I'm being kept really busy with them. I can now class myself as an international seller as they go from here to USA, America and even Australia now - I'm dead chuffed :thumbs: , I've also get referrals from a famous cake shop in Edinburgh as well. So who knows, my dream of working from home may just happen in a couple of years time.

My short term contract ends in the middle of April, but by the looks of things all the contracts should be finalise and signed by the end of this month, so that will then lead to a full contract for me.

So, before I end up writing a book and this is read by those that don't know me :innocent: , I best end now. Those that do remember me, please give me a run down of who is where and what has happened since I was last on please :D

Best of luck to you all waiting for your approvals and your loved ones to join you!

Pauline :star:

(p.s.. just wanted to show you my lastest topper cos I really love this one - I think she is really classy with her long white gloves! )

hey Pauline !! So good to see ya pop in here !!

Sry to hear of your Dads passing. I know what ya mean about how bittersweet it is. My brother died of Cancer and though I felt terrible that we lost him at such a young age I knew he was in a better place and no longer in pain.

Here's hoping Wyatt gets healthy enough to withstand his surgery and that it goes off without a hitch!

Congrats on being a Grandma too!!

I Love the pic of your newest Topper. Thats so cool!!

Here's a link to a neat FREE classified website for Wedding Items! I'm sure your toppers would be a HUGE hit!

Don't be a stranger, we sure do miss you. Very very sorry to hear about your dad, but as you said, at least you were able to be there. (F)

Take care of yourself!
