What You Don't See

I was chatting with DH's niece last night and a grand chat it was :)

Now i knew she was having a rough time in her life, but after last night i now see her life in a new light! To be honest, it was heartbreaking reading what she is going through. Being family you'd think i'd have the vaugest of ideas of what is happening within her family unit, but nope! Not even DH knows and i'm not going to be the one to tell him. His family is a close knit one and if they want him to know anything they will tell him, or so it used to be. It seems we are out of the loop of late. We live a fair distance from the rest of them but not as far as some families. Anyways, i digress.

Niece is a beautiful soul. For a young lass she is wise beyond her years and dealing with the happenings inside her home is going to age her quicker then she needs to. She has alot of potential in life but i feel she needs encouragment to move forwards. She's says she's not getting that from home and i don't want to step on any toes but will do anything to help her fulfill her dreams and i know Dh will too, just wish she'd open up a bit more! Yes i worry about her, more then any of the nieces and nephews in the fold. I click with her more then the others, it's not favourtism it's just a me thing lol. I hope she can overcome this hurdle without beating herself up to much.

Yawn, it's pay day today, 90% of my hard earned mummies cash is going towards bills. Thankfully Dh has work for the week - he's been out of work for the past 7 weeks - his pay will keep our heads above water for another fortnight.

Until next time
keep smiling
