My lovely boy is on his way home for Christmas!

It's been a stressful two months but he's on his way... He's deaf and autistic and had to do Christmas Day on his own last year... It was beyond awful.We had no way of getting him home and we wanted to protect my elderly mother so he stayed in his flat and my friend delivered his dinner.
He's been convinced since November that he won't get back for Christmas and every time Boris has spoken he's got very anxious... (Particularly the two this week!)
Anyway he's on his way with his suitcase, presents and a giant sized Chef Percy Pig!! 🙊 🙊 🙊 🙊
My friends husband is taking me to the station to collect him and we can't wait to see each other!!

Wilf took this on the platform.. Everything stopped while it was being taken... The lady from the train company got very emotional as I had told her about last year..... When the train stopped she said "Oh look he's clapping his hands!!"

My lovely boy is on his way home for Christmas!

Dearest @RainbowWilf996 🌈 and 🐷

I’m glad that Percy helped you through the bad times. I cuddle the dog. It makes everything feel a tiny bit better. You have dealt with things so well when it has been really hard for you.

I still would have liked to have seen you alongside Rose and Gio tomorrow. 😊 that would have made my year!

Have a lovely Christmas Wilf. You shine ✨ brighter than sunflowers 😊
