Merry Christmas!

A very big thank you to everyone who's shown their support for Connor by following the blog.  He hasn't always found his new way of life easy and I'm sure it's been uplifting for him to know that his friends and family are all behind him.  Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all!

Home safe and sound!

Despite the snow, Connor is home at last.  I'm so pleased he's made it through the first term and I'm sure he's ready for his well-earned rest.  When I get chance to see him is anybody's guess though because the snow here is already at least six inches deep and doesn't show any sign of stopping!  At least I can text and ring him any time I like now and I'm likely to get a response :-)

Home in the snow

Well, we are knee-deep in snow and my baby is on his way home by train!  I did try advising him that perhaps it wasn't the best idea he's ever had but he wasn't buying into that.  Even if he gets home tonight, I'm not sure that he'll make it back in time for his deadline on Sunday evening!  Fingers crossed that the snow thaws by then.
