I had a text today from C, it just said "Thank you x".
That really put this in perspective. We have agreed to help another couple have a baby. A real life baby. The rest is just details. We will be connected to them in a way we are not connected to any other couple in the world. I am so proud of my Husband, he has handled this a lot better than me. It has also been lovely to talk, actual proper conversations. Not chat about the children or our days or the news. Proper grown up stuff. Maybe thats why I struggled with this, maybe its because it is so out of my little world.
I have quite a nice life. I have never really wanted for much (it does help that I have very low standards). Boats, cars and expensive holidays are not interesting to me. I love my Children and my garden, the beach, our families and thats what I have. I have to learn to embrace the new and unexpected. I may even buy some funky red shoes. I am starting to come to terms with being a grown up.
