Hi,
Our family has had an incredibly difficult few months. Our third dd was born in September a month early, and sadly, she was born severly disabled both mentally and physically. Her condition is described as life limiting We are all devestated, but my older girls aged 4 and 6 have been fantastic and understanding that dd3 has had to come first and Mummy has to rush to the hospital at short notice or stay away for a long time. I'm so pround of them.
Anyway, I usually take the girls to DLRP once a year and they have begun to ask when we are next going. I am usually restricted to school holidays as I am a teacher, but being on maternity leave this year I can look at other times.
I saw the offers, and had a little look and I can get a fantastic deal leaving the day after my 30th birthday- leaving in 12 days... It would just be the older girls and I, dh would stay behind with dd3. But would I be mad? I'd have to get permission from the head teacher, dh would have to book holiday, I'd need to book and pay for the ferry and Disney, book travel insurance. All possible, but would need to be done quickly. I've never driven in France without another adult in the car- would it be hell?
On the other hand, I could do with the break, dd3 is stable at the moment, the price is unbelievable and the girls deserve the treat.
What would you do? To Disney or not to Disney?
