Isn’t it wonderful when your body and mind choose to be on seperate teams?? Since the birth if my youngest child over 5 years ago, I have been convinced that my husband and I were “done”. No more babies for us. We have plenty of kids & even more dogs SO let’s move on to the next stage in our lives. A stage where we can travel easily & more frequently as a family, not have a trunk full of baby paraphernalia, go out occasionally as a couple, and….(case & point- my B. clock is currently clouding my brain and I can’t even think of one good more thing to list….drat!)
So for the last year I have been hearing the call- the call of the clock. The clock that jerks at my insides whenever I see a baby, the clock that screams to me that I getting old and my insides (and outsides) are aging fast and I am running out of time to conceive a healthy child- hurry up, hurry up, hurry up, hurry up. I’m doing my very best to keep it all at bay. I continue to press the snooze button, but have not yet been able to figure out how to turn it off.
Anyway, enough about me and my crazy brain. My brilliant and sane cousin just gave birth to a beautiful baby boy. Welcome to the world Baby Eli!!! I love you already. I can’t wait to hold you, hug you and smell your cute baby head. Congratulations Cousin!! I love you & am so proud of you!
Babies are so nice to hold. Even though I had the wires crossed on my B. clock, it seems to be ticking again. Nothing to be done now for it.
