Good Morning ..... Happy Easter Male Card & A MOAN!!


Good morning all,Hope your is a good one.
Life is pretty much Stressfull in our household many of you know weve been having problems on and off with my eldest and bullying .Well basically on tuesday we witnessed it for ourselves as we dropped the girls off at the bus stop Andy said lets just wait see so glad we did as witnessed it first hand.Well how he held me down and i didnt get out the car beats me!but in end we followed the bus and went and saw Mr Wet weekend our nick name for Sophies head of year.Well after still doing nothing even after us witnessing & writing another letter he is letting this gang and it is a gang get away with murder all he has to say to us is sophie's taking it too personnaly!!Obviuosly he's never been bullied.It all came to head yesterday morning after she reluctantly left for school i litteraly sobbed.Sophie has been down this road before and got anorexic and tried to hang herself and i just cant sit down waiting for that to happen again.So ive took her out of school today and going to see my Gp with her this morning so glad i made opd yesterday. Im going to try to get her signed off due to Mentaly &physically exhausted due to Bullying.this way we have proof .She is not our daughter the happy go lucky 12 yr old we had few months ago even her sister is so worried.The school just sitting on the fence doing sod all!I had phone call yesterday afternoon from someone who comes into school to see her re dyslexia.She said she felt she had to ring after seeing sophie on wednesday ,and said she is worried that bullying isnt been sorted out Sophies gonna have breakdown as this gang is stalking her.Well it happened last night .So im off with her this am to see gp,and see what happens there.My heart goes out to her yet i feel so helpless! I just hope ive done the right thing,it is so sad to see Sorry for going on im just not normally so down ,stressed usually can cope with things that life throws my way but this is just horrific what we have going on right now i cant go into it all and wouldnt want to bore you either!lol
Anyway enough of my woes,hope you all have a great Friday and enjoy your weekend.
I did intend to come on yesterday afternoon but due to thye above i didnt find the time i will pop back later today with the Alzheimers Friday Giverway so be sure to pop back later.
Now onto my Card this morning is a Easter Card for a Male I have followed the sketch over at:
