Yesterday was a good day, a chance to pay our respects to the recently departed Nanny (John's Mum) after a long battle with cancer. There were a few, a fair few people I'd not seen since Mum and John's wedding 25 years ago - Vicky, Nick and Richard were all, like me, pre-adolescent. Now Vicky has a couple of kids, so does Richard and I have Leon - who was a happy destraction at such a sad occaison. Once the goodbye had been done - the funeral and tears were shed, there was a get together at a pub nearby, then the immediate family, us included went back to Den's place (John's Dad). The get together was a chear up and a chance to be family for everyone. It was lovely to see Michelle and Nicola. Everyone made a fuss of Leon, who was for the most part very chearful and well behaved apart from crabby hour about 3pm. Once he'd had a nap he was happy again. We left about 7.30pm, much later than planned. Leon had his tea there and we put him in is bed stuff including sleeping bag so when we got home about 10.30pm, I just changed him, fed him and he slept through as normal until 6.30 this morning.
