Ah, it takes me back...


My sister-in-law is about to have her second baby - in the same hospital Ari was born. The baby's impending arrival has already brought back so many memories of that first tumultuous week of Ari's life.
Though at times it was confusing, frustrating, painful, exhausting and frightening, the overriding memory I have of our time in hospital is overwhelming joy. Rob, Ari and I were in this amazing love bubble that no one could touch. Our delight was palpable. We were in awe of the little man we had created and every thing he did was magnificent.
Rob still wells up when he talks about the night his son fell asleep on his chest. He says it was one of the most wonderful moments of his entire life.
Now our little baby is a little boy...
