well ive been desperate to get driving for the past couple years now but just not had the money! last year i was bought lessons and did around 16hours worth but then run out of money as didnt have a job etc! so anyway next month its my 21st and my dad is gonna buy me a block of lessons so i can hopefully get this driving done and dusted as im reallyyy wanting to pass by time baba number 2 is here in august!

now comes the exciting part!!...my MIL has bought me a CAR!!! i cant actually beleive it!! im sooooo happy and excited! its a nissan micra (i know some people may laugh) but apperantly in amazing condition and the couple whos hair she does (shes a mobile hairdresser) are the only people who have owned it! its 12 years old and only done 21,000 miles!!! like bloody new! ive not seen it yet as they wana polish it up etc and decorate it with things for my bday which isnt till 20th march! seems ages away but im just so happy right now and had to share my excitment!! x x x

Aww that's lovely and so exciting! Best thing I did was to take my test, I love driving and you'll wonder how you ever managed before x

That's a lovely gift, I've been driving 19 years this year and love it

Awww thats lovely. Sounds like a great little car for you. x

Awww that's lovely! I had an old school Nissan micra for my first car it lasted me and my sister! Was a brilliant little car!!

Awww, your MIL sounds fab! xx

thats great a car is the best thing you can have!! I love my MIL she is always there for me, she will always look after all 4 of my girls even on sort notice. My mother won't ever look after the girls i would be lost without my MIL!!! X enjoy the car

aww thats lovely. i used to have a micra and theyre lovely little cars ! x

Wow, what a top mil you have x

brill!! xx

I really do! She's had Jamie every week for a sleep over since he was 6 weeks old to give me a rest! I suffered with bad PND after having Jamie and really struggled and she was absoultly Brill! My mum has only watched j for about 6 hours in total since he's been born! I honestly see her as a 2nd mum and also OH's grandma I class as my own (I don't have one) and she has Jamie for me once a week whilst I work! Don't know what id do without them! Xx

awwww that is lovely x
