Happy Valentine’s Day 🌹to you all. I hope you’ve all had or having a lovely romantic day or evening.
I’ve had the most beautiful meal made me by my beautiful wife. What stands out for you this Valentine’s Day? .
I’ve had a few hours out working with Nick , he’s my newest worker if you didn’t already know. Oh blinking heck he makes me laugh. Almost every time I work with him we find ourselves singing to the most memorable songs from the past or he leaves me on the floor in pleats of laughter🤣. I said to him today he needs to be on the stage. He’s priceless! . I can’t remember what we where chatting about , quite possibly other peoples driving skills. Oh it was soooooo funny😂🤣😂🤣 , such a good belly laugh.
What’s not fun is I’ve just ran a bath and I was so going to enjoy the thought of a hot Bath. err no such blinking luck. I’ve run the hot tap and I’ve nothing but a Bath half full of cold water🥶😬. My boiler continues to work in mysterious ways. Erm.. not the right way, with NO hot water surging out of the tap.. It’s time I phoned the Wolf man! . Oh this what I call him .. sshhh .. don’t tell him😂. I’ve not even met him, but he comes with a good reputation. His company name is Wolf heating. He’s a friend of my good buddy Andy , my ‘web guru.
So words are here this evening with my little Grandson in mind. With only two weeks to go before the private social worker has to have all reports into the family Court in the Isle of Man 🇮🇲.
The Court requires all paperwork in by 3rd of March , with Court hearing of Ten minutes being held on the 9th March , my Sisters 60th Birthday in fact too.
So big day all around. I’ve delegated my brother to sort out the outing planned for my sisters meal out. I’ve asked the people around her if it was ok and they said yes. Good stuff.
So our little man in the Isle of Man 🇮🇲. It’s a big big situation. I’m really not sure what I’m going to write. I’m not here to belittle people. I can only shine my love for the little boy who has changed my life. A little boy who is in an unsettling situation. With his little mind and huge heart . The little boy has changed my life! , it’s quite endearing in both ways. The fact that it could be the little boy inside me who is coming out to play and has been inspired connect with a joy of life. What a feeling.. It is a hope and a dream ..
When it comes my grandson who lives far away, not far on a aero plane . Just 30 minutes in fact! .
So it could be curtains drawn for Grandma and myself. It will 3 years this September since we last had the most beautiful time of our lives playing and chatting with him. It’s a shame it’s come to this . No one can say we’ve not tried to connect and keep connected with him but when the forces that be are so dead against us from having any contact . Its certainly a tough place to be.. Though we were allowed to see him through contact at the Douglas Children Centre way back in our first contacts . This was on the back of his Dads visitations. This stopped for some reason or another. Which I’m not going into. We went on to gain more access through challenging the process and to ask the courts to look at our case. We thankfully were granted permission . We went to gain access with an out of court settlement with the courts seal of approval.
We had some absolutely incredible times with our Grandson visiting many places around the island. Even on a cold wet day in November we found some lovely moments in the Museum in Douglas. It was fabulous to play with him on the practical games played there. I’ve even a saved charcoal rubbing he made on the day in the museum. Yes indeedy I love this little boy. It’s been said my love for him was way over the top.. It’s takes someone with Heart to be able to miss someone with great ability to connect, rejoice and miss someone terribly. It’s been said I’m unstable, what!, for loving a child with all my heart and being allowed to when it suited. This is my experience and no one can take that away from me.
There’s only me , who can tell you how I broke down whilst walking around Southport town centre shortly after our grandson went to live away from us. This was just seeing a child cry with his parents on Lord Street. Hmm… how would anyone feel if their loved one was taken from them without any notice or goodbyes or any goodwill. Yes it was harsh to say. It’s a shame Grandparents have to go to Courts to ask for help . This is our second time , after the first court order being broken.
Hey ho, this will be last time and NO ONE CAN SAY WE HAVEN’T TRIED. Our Grandson will know in years to come we truly tried to see him. In a few years time he will be a different person and hopefully he’ll understand a little more about life.. So the big question is , Am I willing to say farewell and we’ll see you in a few years time when you are ready. It’s a tough call but the fact he’s apparently told someone he doesn’t want to see us again, I can understand his position. I honestly don’t blame him.. I’d probably of said the same thing as a child not wanting to upset my Mum.
The deck of cards seems against us , we’ve have had no contact up to date from any social worker. She has her work cut out. I guess we’ll be the last ones to tell our story.. A story of one sweet love for a little boy who changed my life..
until Next time,
Take care
