Last Saturday, brought us some joy into our lives in the shape of a new baby girl. The sensations around birth are mixed. Excitement is tempered by concern for mother and child. Childbirth still is a dangerous business even these days. We lost a grandchild at 38 weeks of pregnancy when he was still born. Since then, I hold my breath each time a baby is born.
However little Ava, great grandchild number six is here and as far as we can tell her temperament seems to be placid. Unlike her sister who came roaring into the world. Her sister two-year-old Evelyn is overly dramatic, energetic with a determination to succeed in everything she attempts. This can be difficult when she insists on doing everything for herself like getting dressed and her mother needs to get out of the house quickly.
But as we who have raised our families know, childhood is fleeting, although it may not seem so at the time. We were often looking to a time beyond when the children are independent and have left home.
When peace reigns and memories of those little children are all you have you might look back and wonder where all those years have gone.
