Today has been another vastly different day from what I had planned! My original plan was to be a domestic goddess for the day and to tend to my own health requirements by seeing my MD at 12 and my social commitments included visiting a friend and partying with another friend...... well that was the plan.... BUT....
My day started with a midnight drive across to Hamilton where my VERY pregnant daughter went into a mild labour at 11pm and then called me in case it escalated and I ran out of time to cross from Ngatea to Hamilton ( about one and a half hours drive) I arrived at a little after midnight to find the process somewhat slowed and my daughter quite exhausted. We all turned in at about 2 am and slept til 5am when she was woken with more contractions slightly stronger and more intense in their spacing. It is now almost mid-day and still no baby. This is very normal as it can take a while foir everything to get to speed.... but when I stopped to look at the clock I wondered where the day went.
When this new little girl comes into the world what will I tell her about her birth? Actually I think the most memorable moment will be the one where I look into her little eyes and connect my soul to hers forever. It will no longer matter what I did with the day.... it'll be an eternal memory in my life because she lives. She will be my marker for this day. We look forward to holding you Rebecca Jane, won't you come out to play?
