It's a reasonable day, bright, not raining and the birds are chirping merrily in the background, so why am I so anxious today? Sitting here at my computer I am contemplating, what next for us? I feel lots of things are coming to an end and this is making me think more and more about the future, our future.
One of the ends is Baby Sensory. Yes it has finally come, we have to move on I think. We've had a good run and enjoyed every minute I can safely say. So, what next? What does the baby world hold in store for us now.
Well we're going to have a look at this thing called BabyGym, looks interesting and time is Marching on so we need to join in quickly. Issy will be coming up to 11 months old at the end of March and we will be fast approaching her 1st Birthday. What a momentous occasion!
For some reason I feel a little trepidation as well as joy at this point as Issy's Birthday also signals the impending approach of the dreaded return to work. Eek! Lots of mixed feelings about that of course. I know I am not alone with this, every parent has this ritual of anxiety, guilt and eventual release to go through. It just seemes to come so quickly. It really is true they grow up so fast.
So, the question is how to slow time down? The answer again is simple, as the Gallager brothers said, 'Be here now'. Stay in the moment and don't do what i am doing, don't dwell too much on the past or future, enjoy the present. That is what we shall do! I can't promise we won't slip a little however, the future sometimes does have a way of creeping up on you. It's you, not the future that does it, but you just can't help thinking about it.
