At last, I have found a great nursery in the right town that has the right space and Imogen is booked in!

It was touch and go for a while - the only just had spaces for babies as they have moved them into a larger room. When I went there though (after being cancelled twice due to staff sickness!?) I was told they’ve been taken over and the babies are moving to a much smaller room so there may not be space after all. After a week of waiting, they are leaving the babies in the larger room so all is well, at last!

Have confirmed my return to work date and now just counting down. It all seems a lot more real now I am talking about my time left in weeks and I’m determined to make the most of it - although the list of jobs to do ‘whilst I’m off’ seems to be growing! It’s important to me though that Imogen and I spend quality time together in these last few weeks!
