Hi, that must have been a difficult message to write. I’m sorry that it’s been playing on your mind and I can understand why you might be worried and of course we wouldn’t want Little Miss to spoil baby and your special day. If you don’t feel that you can or want to cope with the intensity that Little Miss brings with her please say so clearly.

We’ve been planning to arrive at yours at the same time as Aunty J, so that there will be three of us to take turns at managing Little Miss. We have already talked about leaving as soon as she shows the signs of having had enough.

I hope I’m not coming across too brusque. I’m feeling really sad for my girl and pretty heartbroken as it feels that there is so little for her and I’m trying very hard not to come across as stroppy, hurt or aggressive. I’m sure that you understand that my response is as hard to put together as your message.

Love GM.
