My Aunt is getting married!!!

Ok ok not a big deal you may think, but gotta give you a bit of history.

About 15 years ago she got married to a guy. Now in a nut shell, he was generally unpleasant and seemed to suffer from some sort of complex relating to his high (so he imediately didn't like me as I'm 6'3" )

Anyway, she had three irratating (well eveyone else thinks they are adorable, I hate em cus they wont leave me alone ) kids.

Now usual story, eventually she worked out how much of a twat he was, but only when he left her for a leggy younger blond. So here is me Aunt with house, three kids, and no job and all the bills to pay.

So where most people would have given up by now and had a break down, what did she do? She got enroled on a day release college course, studied for three years, while looking after the kids and doing a 4 day a week job. I can't even begin to start working out how she managed that!

Passed her course with flying colours and got her HND, ended up landing a good job with a finance firm where she met Neil.

Now your thinking single mum, three kids, most men wouldn't touch her with a barge pole and to be honest, thats what we all thought, it was going to be one of them mutual relationship things where she had someone to help her out, for emotional support, and for a damn good seeing to

But how wrong were we! He only popped the question to her didn't he, and offered to adopt the kids!!!!

Top top respect to the man haven't seen me aunt this happy for years, and I for one, wish them the best of luck
