Last week I was in hospital for a planned ear operation, after which I need peace and quiet - not easy with 2 small twinks running around the gaff, so we shipped them off to Scotland for the longest they have ever been sent away for - 2 whole weeks!!
10 days into it all and I have been comparing how they have dealt with it all..
Twinks (8), and a bit more aware of life around him (and the fact that he was being got rid of) didn't talk on the phone and ignored us all - that is until he knew I was back from the hospital and then he has chattered on as normal and has even being discussing his University and career options with his Grandma and whether or not he can do it all in Scotland!
Mini-Twinks (6) on the other hand got off to a better start and carried on chatting his "random bollocks" (as his father calls them) happily. Then we received our postcard and then finally yesterday he sobbed down the phone that he wanted to come home and missed us all... only 4 more sleeps now!
