just been listening to an old song by Hadaway-What is love! Got me thinking, how does everyone define the meaning of LOVE. Kaz xx

Willing to die for someone.

Respect, trust, admiration. Thats my definition, thats how I feel about my husband and I love him so very much. I could not have given an answer a few years ago (my 1st marriage) as I thought being battered and abused was love!!!! How things change.

Thanks Karen, not a day goes by without me thinking how lucky I am. I tell hubby he is the lucky one, but I know deep down its me. I never ever thought my life would turn out like this, beautiful husband, fantastic house, there is nothing in my life I would want to change. I cant have children but I just think, look at what I have got, I am a very lucky lady. Wendy, willing to die for someone is not love mate. I know where you are coming from but both you and I know thats not real love, thats terror/fear and having someone control you.

I dont mind talking about it - I would like to foster but hubby thinks it would be hard when the children leave. We have neice (5) and nephew(7) that stay with us every other weekend. So we have children around us all the time, we get to have fun and spoil them rotten then hand them back and then enjoy each other. Best of both worlds.

I think it would be hard too if you were to foster, like i say adoption is an option too. sound like you enjoy your niece and nephew, like you say it is nice to have them but also nice to hand them back so you have quality time with your husband. Sounds perfect! All the luck in the world for you both. Kaz xx
