.......can make you so proud.....
I worked in a school that wasn't in the "best" area of town......lots of problems and not very well off folk......we were lucky though in that we had a head who saw the best in each child and a staff who all loved their work.....
Today....along with about a dozen or so retired staff.....I attended the funeral of one of our pupils.....a lovely lad of twenty four killed in a road accident.......
His mum is a friend.......he was a great kid......but it was when I saw so many of our now grown up pupils comforting each other as they walked in carrying red roses...Liverpool scarves......and photographs that I broke down......
I'm sure life isn't always easy for some of them still.......but today they were beautiful and caring young adults.....can't ask any more, can you?.....x

I'm okay, Islay....just so tearful which is unlike me.......this is the second son my friends have lost....and to watch them so broken was too much.......
You sort of want to make the clock go back, don't you.....to change things for them and it's so bloody frustrating that you can't.....
Mixed emotions.......sadness at the loss of A and then being so touched by the kindness and love shown by his friends....x
