Me too, miss.

Although, I've been wondering about this a bit. Am I a single parent? Ds sees his dad several times a week, and we live with my parents. Maybe I'm lucky in that I don't feel like a single parent all that much. What's the definition, do you think?

Sorry if that seems weird - it is genuinely something I've been thinking about recently!

Sorry, have just read that back and it's probably really insulting to mums who really are very much on their own. Ignore my stupid ramblings - sorry!
