Mate, all the best. I've three kids and two grandkids. I've a little idea what a infuriating, hard, brilliant, rewarding, expensive, maddening and beautiful time you're going to have. Like you don't already know
Thanks everyone for your lovely, kind words. Like I said d though, we have to wait til t'judge makes his decision on Thursday. We've got everything crossed. Meanwhile we're off to see t'little chap tomorrow.
That's reet grand Foxy lad, reet groovy baby thas got theer. Bet tha missus is chuft ta'bits an'all. Am appy fer thas all.
Every credit to you pal, that’s a grand thing you’ve done there. I sorry that the poor lad will have to follow the blades though.
I'm absolutely thrilled for you and Mrs. Foxy and your grandson, Foxy. Congratulations and my very best wishes. He is an absolutely gorgeous baby and his new parents look quite dashing and happy--and content--as well!
As a (happily, determinedly and deliberately) childless person I have to say that the wonderful picture and utterly moving story are surprisingly emotive! I sincerely hope that the court reaches an entirely sensible decision and that you are ALL very, very happy Together. Good luck and very best wishes, Mr & Mrs Foxy - and sprog!
Wow Foxy, what a fabulous brave thing to do. You have my utmost respect and admiration. Absolute best wishes for the future.
Not many things touch my heart but you got me. A beautiful story and thankfully to have grand parents willing to keep their own in the family. I guess an easy decision but starting again nearing retirement age is a monumental decision. Well done to your wife and yourself, its a sad shame though that you have to work so hard and jump through so many hoops to be able to have what is your own family. God Bless you both and of course to the little man.
Mate that has pulled at my heart . My wife and I have often said that had that happened to us we would do what you have done rather than see any youngster with our blood go into care. Thankfully we never had to make the choice and have six fantastic grand children. Enjoy the new arrival and hats of to you mate
Best of luck for tomorrow @Foxy1 Great picture of the 3 of you. I can only agree with comments about the joy grandchildren bring. We have our 2yo grandson twice a week and it is so much fun. I have said it on here somewhere before but worth repeating. The wifes friend got her a little plaque thingy when Ollie came along saying 'Grandchildren fill a hole in your heart you didn't know was there.'
I'm hoping all goes well for you, your wife and grandson today Foxy I think we would all like to hear some good news today.
Thinking about you, your wife, and your grandson, @Foxy1. I'm hoping you have hope...and perhaps some prospective good news. Any changes or movement towards a positive resolution?
