I've had that kind of week, really.
What a week!
A week that started with a surprisingly small set of lists and commitments.
With a sense of calm contentment.
A week that turned on it's head.
A week of intense emotions - highs, lows and plenty in between.
A week of a few moments that I have tried hard to erase from my consciousness each night and a week of many beautiful moments that I desperately want to burn into my psyche forever more.
I've felt my heart beat out of my chest in fear and heard a sound that I didn't even know was possible escape my lips in shocked panic.
I've also felt my heart beat clear out of chest with pure joy, love and pride and heard the glorious sound of good ol' Bev telling me that my baby girl was just perfect.

| Hi Mum! |
I've waited patiently to see how things will unfold for my family in the coming months and I've waited impatiently for details, particulars, dates, specifics...
I know I'm alive.
And for that I'm grateful.

Ah yes, how the pendulum swings Shar. It most certainly shows us we're alive and kicking. Weeks like yours are almost surreal, so much good... so much NOT good.
But that little tiny hand just has to make the whole darn lot so worthwhile... she's a gem no doubt xoxo
Wow, what a week you've had. I hope things go easier for you in the coming months.

Beautifully written Shar and Hello baby girl xx
Look at that tiny little hand - so beautiful. I hope the not so good stuff doesn't hang around too long.
Hi Mum!

Those little hands are powerful. They represent hope.
