So saturday our daughter was coming home to try and see her new nephew, one of the other reasons I have left home is because my husband said he wanted nothing to do with the new grandchild and he was keeping out of it!
So saturday I was at work in the morning and tried to keep busy, it's the first time I have not been home to greet my daughter it hurt like crazy, I had still had no word from her by 3pm I was beside myself with anxiety and was making loom band braceletes like a mad women, then my friend phoned me to say my daughter had arrived and was shopping in our town she was worried because she had messaged me and none had got through, and I hadn't replied so that felt better, I knew they were scheduled to see little man at four and my did it drag, then about five a butiful photo arrived of my husband holding the baby, jeez what a miracle, after a few more lovely photos daughter asked when am I going to see you madre, I said come over whenever you want and so both my son and daughter came early evening, I said how did you manage to get your dad to see the baby, my daughter said I just said dad are you coming, he said no I don't do babies , so daughter said well in life dad there are alot of things we all don;t want to do but have to she said don't you think you should do this for your son? he said we will see, well when they got to the house about ten to four my son said oh noooo her mums car is not there we will not be allowed in, husband said thats it I am not waiting all day. daughter said for christs sake you two we have ten minutes yet calm down and lets see, as four oc'lock arrived they walked up the path and saw the younger children looking out of the window, and yay they were all in, the meeting went well and I sent a message saying how proud I was of my family, to most people this would of been a normal event but hey ho, so I popped home yesterday to take my daughter to catch her train back to london, my husband although not having seen me for a few days just sat doing his cross word and watching the telly, he did however venture out into the garden later and said he missed me, and gave me a cuddle and a kiss, I was so very fearful Saturday but I let go and let god and wow, what more can I say xx
You got out of the way, allowed yourself to be where you were in your mind and heart, did what you needed to do for you and waited for the outcome brought about by everyone involved in this circumstance. Good work, Katy.
Well done....so sweet that your hubby got out of his way, too. Be proud, Katy, very very proud. We can affect people by generating love for ourselves...it ripples outward from there.
