And we had the best "get" yet. We are currently packing up all our worldly belongings from the rental we've been living in as after serving in Australian military for 24 years, dear husband has finally discharged and we have bought the dream home - the place we will plant roots and one day hopefully entertain our future grandchildren in. We move in 2 weeks and our kids are beside themselves with excitement at the prospect of not posting around the countryside anymore. We dragged them out of bed yesterday morning and told them we needed to have a serious chat with them. Told them that the current owners of our new home had called us late last night and appealed to us as parents - their children simply could not face leaving their home and it was at critical point where their youngest had to have psychological counseling for the trauma. We had listened and had compassion for their plight and had made the decision that we were going to let them keep their house, and so weren't moving after all. Our poor kids! Sleepy and confused... and not looking forward to unpacking everything and beginning the house hunt again.... Lots of questions and statements from them, but the best came from the oldest (12) who said, "They need to just tell the kid to harden up - we've signed contracts for God's sake! Mum, Dad - what are you waiting for? Just kick them out of our house! The kid will live." (What am I raising here??!!) Their faces when we finally yelled "April Fool's!" - priceless.... (there goes our Parents of the Year award ... LOL ... and yes, their Dad and I were on guard all morning waiting for the get back. Their best attempt was some very poorly laid plastic cling wrap over our toilet seat.)
