I can't hold it in anymore.... My ds is coming out to the Carribean for 2 weeks, we fly off on New Years day and I hope it will give us a chance to get to know each other on neutral territory.
The tickets arrived this morning and being a little bit sceptical that ds might not turn up he cam down last week end and bought his passport with him, for safe keeping as he was afraid that as he is going to the hotel near the airport straight from work that he might forget it.
It has been a very up and down year with lots of sadness but I must confess that I can not be happier than I am now as I am certain that he is coming and the thought of 2 whole weeks with my ds is more than I could ever have dreamt of.
I now have to make certain that I remember he is not a child but an adult. Not smother him and remember that he will not see me as his mother, but it will give us a chance to get to know each other.
Any advice or tips of what not to do will be gratefully received, as I am rather nervous and very concious that I must give him his space and time and he will not be the 'perfect' person that I want him to be or instantly show me affection.....I am so nervous
