DD has her GCSE results today, and has got all the grades she needs to go to college and study the BTEC she has chosen. She has been far more successful than she'd expected, and is terrifically happy. She has come such a long way in 10 years Perhaps the biggest change was that she was truly kind to her friend who was not so successful, and had to keep her own results quiet. She has also set to thanking all the people who helped her, without any prompting. I don't know who is happier, her or us. In amongst all the things that have happened to our family, this is a day that fits with the hopes we had for our children when we set out. Damson

Dear All, I'm still smiling away with satisfaction for her. A year ago, we'd never have dared hope for this outcome. Now we're all hoping that she is happy with her college course.
