A very special moment. I remember the day that that happened with my own daughter. I was beginning to think that perhaps I wasn't normal because the bonding didn't happen on day 1 or even in the first week. But when it did happen it was like being possessed by Attilla the Hun - be very very wary anyone who threatened (or threatens) harm or injury to one of the most precious gifts I had (and have) ever been given. Love Attilla your Mum.
Yes even after having four children it is the same - a period of flat out being busy and tired and then realising that the little gift is really a foundation for your real life - not the life of TV or magazines but REAL life. Thank you for children.

ReplyDeleteI don't think I had realised that it hadn't really happened yet - it's a little like a fog lifting...!

ReplyDeleteI think we'll be busy and tired for quite a while, but it's a very exciting change..!
