Our Dreams Have No Limitations...

This time last year, Tooli had been Head Girl for all of .... 4 weeks? Now - 56 weeks on Thursday she hands the mantle over to Courtney, and tonight - celebrates with all her friends at their Leaver's Prom.

None of us can believe the change in the gorgeous Tooli. From being a quiet, shy and quite timid girl, she has blossomed, grown confident and is an absolute giggle to have around.

Boy has noticed the change too, and is terrified. Being used to hounding her relentlessly for his own pleasure he has to take care in what he says because she has developed her own fast response biting scarcasm which he has no real defence against; It's brilliant to see them jousting with each other and Tooli taking the upper hand.

I was so proud of her tonight - as I ran about like a headless chicken, trying to ensure I was doing all the things she needed done, were done. She floated around the house, smiling sweetly, and being exceptionally calm.

I dropped her and some of her friends at the hotel, and I watched as the whole year congregated outside, and smiled as Tooli along with her Vice squeezed past everyone on the path, and took the lead and welcomed everyone in.

Oh, Tooli, I am so, so very proud of you. Me and Your dad started something good, but heavens above you have just made it oh so much better than I could ever have imagined.
