“Jesse, Poppy and Joe get to share our next adventure,” wrote Mark.
“Thank you [Laura] for the most special gift you’ve brought me. Thank you for being an amazing mum.
“Our next special little person is very lucky to have your care, love and brilliant view of life.
“Let the adventures begin again. You’re working so hard in the Dales and give so much to us all. All five of us are blessed to have you in our world. Thank you.”
