Grumps

I'm writing this after spending all afternoon watching YouTube videos of peoples weddings (Youtube recommended them, I didn't go looking for them honest!!!)


And it got it me thinking, we wont get to do it the traditional way, it may be different, but it will be better! And yes I know that he still hasn't asked me so shush !
But when (yes, when not if, because I WILL wear him down!!!) the time comes you need to be prepared, mentally and emotionally. Because I know you, you pretend to be big and strong but you will cry, you had better!!!! :-)
So I have come up with a list of questions for you to think about before the pressure gets to you. It's a lot to think about it will be too overwhelming for you to think about whilst organizing the finances of MY our big day.


1.Who is walking me down the aisle?

 a. Sam
 b. Uncle H
 c. Uncle Grant / Uncle Rob / Uncle Kev
 d. No one
 e. Uncle Alun
 f. Sam, BJ, Alex, Grant, Rob, Kev, Sean, Uncle H - Me like the Queen of Sheba and them all carrying me
 g. You - BJ can install a remote control thingy on your bed and we will wizz down

  Leaning towards B, F or G (G is best, F don't want anyone else to be offended, so they can all do it. If we go for A, Al and BJ might be upset. Can't have anyone in C without feeling like I am being mean to the other 2. If I cant have G or Grandad G, B sounds like a good compromise. See my dilemma, that's why I am getting you to choose!)


2. Whats the budget?

 Basically this is to prove to the world that you love me the most and that you are the most generous Daddy in the universe.


3. How much is my dress + shoes budget?
 see above!


4. Daddy - Daughter dance?

 Traditional?

  Or more Us?
 You know what this one is going to be.
 - JUMP

The choice is yours, but just so you know if you decide on JUMP, all the people mentioned in 1.e. HAVE to do it with me Hugh Grant style (obviously!) or if you go for a traditional song they had better surprise me by doing this sort of thing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JPDXmbaXvgw


5. When will your speech be done?

 I'm sure it is already prepared, jokes, powerpoint and props in hand. And there is just tweaking to be done, like how long it has taking for this day to come. and a few things to be added.
Some things that need to be said in for mentioned speech -

*"Sam was our first child, and everyone knows that the first copy is always a rough one, so although we love him very much, we thought we could do better, so we had another boy, then another, but after 3 boys we decided that we couldn't get to perfection so we stopped. You will notice that I forgot about Sophie, as you all know she is our only daughter, she is so perfect that there was no need for us to have any more girls, because they would never be able to live up to the level of greatness that Sophie set."

*"Sophie is the best, the most beautiful, the kindest, most wonderful daughter anyone could wish for"

*"Ceddy you are lucky to have her, and so lucky that she said yes, you made her wait long enough!"

*"Soph's and I have a very special bond, she is the person I love the most in the world" (You then should apologize to mum and the boys and say something along the lines of "Mrs J, you come a very very close second and boys, the 3 of you are in joint third." )


6. Do I need to proof read it first? 
7. What's Mummy's dress budget?
 You will thank me later for this one, you might want to decide on this and then answer questions 2 and 3. Bare in mind that she is not allowed to upstage me, so don't give her too much!


I have given you a lot to think about, so get that cap on!

Obviously this will be a surprise for me when the time comes, so just keep all this to yourself no need to go blabbing off to Mum about it all! So let me know what you decide, a text an email or telepathic message is fine, but like soon-ish would be good, need to know if you need a few more years to put that money aside for the budget ;-)



Love you

XOXO

ALS / MND / Lou Gehrig's Disease

As promised this article is about ALS. I am going to give you the facts. Not my views or feelings on the subjet nor will there be any personnal info in this one. It may be a hard read for some, but I feel you need to know what the illness is to be able to understand how we live our lives. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), often referred to as "Lou Gehrig's Disease," is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord. Motor neurons reach from the brain to the spinal cord and from the spinal cord to the muscles throughout the body. The progressive degeneration of the motor neurons in ALS eventually leads to their death. When the motor neurons die, the ability of the brain to initiate and control muscle movement is lost. With voluntary muscle action progressively affected, patients in the later stages of the disease may become totally paralyzed. A-myo-trophic comes from the Greek language. "...

Birthdays...

Mum go and get the box of tissues from beside Dad's bed. Knowing you, you'll need it. xxx Sorry for that side note. As I start to write this it is 11.57pm. In 3 minutes it will be my birthday, I thought you would like to know how I feel on days like tomorrow... "Make a wish as you blow out your candles", "Oh look a shooting star make a wish", "Blow on this eyelash and make a wish", "Star light, Star bright, First star I see tonight, I wish I may, I wish I might have this wish I make tonight." I always make the same wish. "I wish Daddy could give me one last hug, and could tell me he loves me one more time". But no matter how hard I want it, no matter how many times I make the same wish, it never comes true... Most days I can deal with the fact that dad can't speak or move anymore, but some days (like today) I find it really hard to cope with. When I passed my exams, I really wanted to hear a "...

Lettre d'une fille à son père...

Image
  Cher Papounet, Tu es le premier homme que j'ai aimé. Tu es mon héros. Tes bras sont les premiers dans les quels je me sentais protégé, en sécurité. Le sourire qui illumine ton visage quand tu me vois me fait sentir si heureuse et adorée. Merci d'être à l'écoute. De pouvoir tout partager avec toi et de te montrer ma vulnérabilité a été si important pour mon développement en tant que femme. Tu as su quand me conseiller et quand, tout simplement, essuyer mes larmes. Merci d’avoir travaillé dur pour subvenir à mes besoins. Tu m'a donné un sentiment de sécurité qui m'a propulsé dans la création d'une fondation épanouissante de ma propre vie. Merci de me accepter pour qui je suis. Ton soutien inconditionnel de mes qualités et mes défauts m'a aidé à savoir qui je suis vraiment. T es encouragements infaillibles m'ont poussé vers l'avant. Merci de me montrer ton côté plus doux. Je sais que tu es fort et que tu me protèges, ma...
