...what cant knock you,

...Makes You stronger...


I've had so much going on with Court things~ which have been one very big, scary animal!!!!
I havent documented too much about it on my blog, but I've now had my final hearing and I am so pleased with the outcome~ My daughter's happiness has been my goal throughout and now I can breathe that these very important things have been made very clear to someone who thinks only of himself...
The last 3 months I feel I've been to hell and back...But what cant knock you makes you stronger?!~ well, kind of, but I have been totally knocked for six...and sometimes its not so easy to just 'cheer up'!.
I've kept busy, well, I've had to I'd have gone mad if I didn't.
But I'm not going to beat myself up anymore...I know now I did everything right for my little girl and I will never let someone be-little me.
Sitting in a Court room with all eye's on you is nothing I wish on anyone~ Trying to not break down while speaking was my main issue...Thankfully I had a very confident and clued up Solicitor which had given me a 'voice' on the things I would have found very hard talking about...It was all upsetting.
Anyway, Its 'OVER'...I did it...above everything else I'm a good Mum and I care about my daughter and her future. And finally I have the law on my side and I will not be bullied anymore!...

I can breathe!...Yay!!.



On a really cheerful note I'd won another Giveaway...
From Lovely Madelief 's blog...
A wonderful book...'Creative Walls'...really inspirational...also she sent Sweet pea some lovely gift tags and sweet notelets.  Thank you sooo much x


...So if you been wondering why my blog posts have been lacking some what you will understand my life's been in quite some pickle since the end of the Summer...

I'm just hoping things will settle down a little bit, 

x Kazzy x

  25. Thank goodness. You were mentioning now and again the pressure you were under and we could only guess at what you were actually going through and feeling. At least you've achieved what you wanted from the sound of it and now life can move forward. Have fun with your Sweet Sweet Pea Kazzy. Kick back and just enjoy being you.

    Much love Lisa X

  26. This sounds horrendous. I can remember the post when you hoped a certain someone would not let your daughter down again...it seems that ultimately that has happened, as all this sounds so unnecessary. Good on you!!!! Sweetpea is blessed with a gorgeous, kind and talented mum. Take care both of you.

  32. Oh Kazzy, I'm so pleased that there has been a positive outcome for you, and for Sweetpea! It's been a long, difficult journey for you, and I know at times you must have felt so disheartened and worried. You are a wonderful mum, anyone can see that, and I wish you all that is wonderful, good and wholesome for 2013. I pray that you can put all the anxiety behind you, and rest in the knowledge that you have held your own, made it through, and you can hold Sweetpea tight and look forward to tomorrow, and every day that is to follow! Much love, Tania ♥

  35. So proud of you. I totally understand. In the end one child came with me and the other went to live with their dad. I couldn't split them in two. It is really hard. You did the right thing. You are a great mom. Give yourself I hug from all of us who know of what you speak.

  48. Very very well done Kazzy. Your post reminded me of years back when I too had to stick up for my children in a court room. It was hard and upsetiing and afterwards you just feel exhausted.
    And you are right - it did make me stronger and I can't be bullied anymore :)
    You now need to take some time for you when your little girl is in school :)
    Much love.

  49. Kazzy, I am so happy for you, I also know what it is like to stand up in court, however I was not listened to and my solicitor was useless, but mine was a settlement issue not child related. I am so glad that you stood tall and proud and true to yourself, you are a wonderful mummy and person and that obviously shone through.

  50. Well done on acheiving what you set out to do. Protecting your little ones is a very instictive thing for us mums and the courage and strength we find in ourselves when challenged amazes me. Carry on being the wonderful and caring mum you so obviously are. Hope the sun is now shining in your world Kazzy after such heavy clouds.

    Take care.

  81. Hello Kazzy
    I always stop by your blog but I don't always comment. The folksy weekend with your Mum sounds wonderful...just my cup of tea. You painted a wonderful picture with your words and I conjured up the images. Sometimes a camera is more of a nuisance, i am sure you have wonderful 'heart' photos to remember the evening by.
    I am really sorry to hear of your emotional struggles...I am just about to embark on a very similar thing, via mediation but am certain that the person wishes for his day in court ... No going back...onwards and upwards
    I am sure your's and sweet peas future is bright. The best is yet to come.
    Thinking of you.
    Keep strong.
    LOVE PEACE enJOY every minute of everything that makes your heart sing.

  82. I haven't been over for a while i to like the lady above would often pop over and read but not always comment some how you gone from news feed. Im so sorry to read of the struggle you have been experencing but im so very happy that you got the outcome that you needed for yourself and your beautiful little girl. Never doubt your mothering skills you are a wonderful mum and it shows in everything you say and do. Being a single mum is so very hard and i know i was one myself for years and having no family here to help either was very diffuclt at times espcially with my sons illness. But life changes and you take on another direction and thats what will now happen to you lovely. Good luck with everything and keep shinning brightly, dee x
