your moments posts are lovely. I'm sorry your decision isn't being respected, I know you didn't make it lightly.
ReplyDeleteThought I'd come and say hello. Topsy & Tim and anything by Emma Chichester Clark are favourites with my 5yr old. I just read your post about your volunteering decision. You are absolutely right to put your family first. Volunteering, when you feel taken advantage of, or when people are rude, makes you question why you are doing it and you absolutely should not be made to feel bad about making the decision to stop.
