One fast mamma = One broken toe..... Ouch!!!

Day 3

Quick explanation... Husband has stomach flu - in bed, miserable....Yay! Mum and the girls were out late trying to prevent anyone else from getting the dreaded lurgy - so last minute rushing to shower and bed.... Mamma's running (what's new)... ran into the corner of the base moulding - little toe went one way.... the rest went the other! Diagnosis - NOT GOOD! Yes family, I know.... I am my mothers daughter!

Bring Dylan Home - www.bringdylanhome.co.nz

Dylan Rennick Laybourn is a 20 month old New Zealand boy who was taken to Turkey for a 3 week holiday on May 4 2007 buy his mother and never returned to his Daddy. This beautiful little Kiwi boy, the Great Grandson of a New Zealand Gallipoli Soldier, has been trapped in Turkey ever since! Dylan was removed from NZ eerily exactly the same time that British girl Madeleine McCann, went missing in Portugal.

Bruce is a personal friend of mine in NZ and I would love it if we could help find his little boy for him! Thanks. Pass it on.......
