Dear everyone,
I am sorry for the silence. Our family had a rough start to 2008. Things are much better now, but we're still shaken and now that Seb is back in the Netherlands I'm not quite feeling like posting again yet. But we're OK. :)
We did manage to spend a few days in England (half for holidays, half for work), albeit under different circumstances than expected. It did us both good though.

I'll be back soon... promise. Thank you for all the love! I'll tackle my overflowing mailbox as soon as I am up to it.

Merci aussi à mes lectrices francophones. J'ai eu besoin de faire une pause de quelques semaines. Je promets de revenir bientôt. Merci pour vos messages et commentaires qui me touchent beaucoup ! Bonne Année 2008 à vous toutes.
La P'tite Mignonne vous dit bonjour. :)

It's such a strange idea Seb is so nearby.
I understood from your previous post also that there was something happening in your lives what needed attention.
I hope 2008 will be good for you after the days you had.

I'm glad to see you're posting, and to hear things are slowly getting better (even though they are not back to where you would like them to be). That's to bad to have to start out the year with a rocky start, but hopefully it is behind you now and the rest of your year will be better. Take care and know that we're thinking of you. Also, very sweet picture of P'tite Mignonne, she looks like she's a natural model. :)
