Hi guys, right i have a few seconds to spare whilst she is in the bath,
right i was in the hospital having a chat to the consultant and i get a phone call saying she had been causing trouble yet again and that my sil was throwing her out onto the streets, so i went up to her as soon as i'd finished and asked what she wanted and it was a relief to hear the words " i want to come with you ", we had intended to give her a few hours whilst dh went to the gym but no they were there chucing her stuff in the car, so after a tearfull goodbye we treated her to a mc donalds and brought her home to settle in. We have told her the rules n regs n so far so good she has settled in well and has took to her chores immediatel, she never shuts up talking and best of all she has opened up a little already not much and i am not pushing her but we went a walk shopping as she had no ladies things and it's time of the month so took her shopping for some things and treated her to things like fav cereal etc and she started to open up a little.
What i find upsetting is a 14 year old who doesn't even know how to cook beans on toast or make a cuppa, well she met the kettle earlier and even watched me cooking so interested.
She's in the bath now then off to bed to wind down so day 1 not to bad

sorry hun dont mean to be rude but who is she ur niece? im sorry if tht sounds rude but dont know ur story and am interested

Well sounds like a good thing.... (like the above post, is that your niece?)

Hi girls yep sorry she is my neice, the full story is on here a couple down from this 1 just there is so much i thought i'd start a day 2 day thing on here to show our good n bad days
The other thing on here to show about it all is called what do i do

will have a read hun

just read it all and i have to say ur an amazing person to open up ur home to her like that it will prob be hard i remember when i was that age and i was a right little cow but its a phase and iv no doubt she will get over it shes very lucky to have you and i hope it goes well for u u might even find it really nice having another female in the house (u now have an ally for things like desperate houswives lol) keep us updated

lol i'm enjoying it as up until now i was the only female in the house, even my pets are male but now i have a mini me to mold into a soaps loving chocolate munching person
shock of her life will be sunday as we go to church

Glad she's settled in and your enjoying the exxperience aswell as she is!! x

Day 2
well guys not much to say today has been chilled and just felt so normal, she woke up giggling at my 2 year old shouting mommy n daddy i've poo'd, then has been talking to friends on msn, we nipped to her parents today to pick up the last of her stuff and wow that was wierd she just sunk into herself and didn't talk her mother was on about they are down sizing now she has gone and that they are moving away to wales i feel so sorry for her, we're off in a couple of weeks to get her some new clothes e.g as i don't get paid tilll then but she only has 1 pair of school trousers that are ripped and ruinned, 2 pairs of her mothers old jeans and a coat with a zip that doesn't work. So this little lady is going to be a bit pampered as we're having a girly night soon and will dye her hair then in a couple of weeks some new clothes ( i've told her as long as she behaves )
So girls it's all good for now and she's even been doing chores and i'm learning her how to do spag bol tomorrow night.

I am glad it is all going well, you have a massive heart of gold - there should be more people in this world like you.
