Dear So and So…

Dear busybodies

Seriously, can you mind your own damn business? DD will not die if she doesn’t have fifteen layers of clothes on. And to the woman who stopped me on the street to tell me DD wasn’t wearing a hat, I know that, funnily enough I am her mother. It’s not that frigging cold! Why do you think that you have the right to tell me what to do? I am more than capable of looking after my own daughter.

Yours annoyed

Dear busybodies

Very sorry about that rant. I’m not usually so rude. I do respect our cultural differences, really I do. And I do like living here. Some days it just gets to me being here so far away from home and today was one of those days. Also we’ve been building up to something and it’s about to happen, not an excuse I know, but hopefully you’ll understand.

Yours apologetically

Go! Go! Go! You’ve been given the best shot at it thanks to the wonders of modern medicine and we’re keeping our fingers crossed that you’ll get it together with Ms Egg this time and give DD a little brother or sister.

Yours hopefully
IUI Mummy

Dear DD

Thank you for being so wonderful today at the hospital. It was super boring for you waiting for Mummy and Daddy to do their thing and you missed your lunch and you were late for your nap and it was SO hot. Sorry, sorry,sorry.

Yours
