hello

so. things are getting better I guess.. the girls are totally wonderful and brilliant with each other - both of them obviously prefer the other to be around and rarely seem to fight for my attention. the papa raven is now loving the new family dynamic - after a little initial panic at the chaos we now live in - and revels in the freedom of childhood. I'm fairly healed even if I do look like frankenstein's monster across my belly. Emotionally I'm still very raw and there's a lot of pain I have yet to tackle but I'm more in control of my emotions now and don't feel quite so much like I'm wading through treacle all the time. There's so much to say but for now a little is better than nothing...
