HEYZ! just filling in this blog right after my family visit.
IT went GREAT!
We got a substitute mum though because the mum that we were
supposed to have visited was suddenly 'unavailable on tuesday mornings on
tuesday morning'
But I like our substitute mum, she warmly welcomed us to her home
just after having been notified 20 minutes earlier.
And she had the loveliest little baby
called Luke
REally cute, nice and quiet and nice smelling.
Very smiley and gurgly baby.
And he fell asleep halfway through our conversation
(with his mum of course)
And boy, was he a sound, peaceful sleeper.
SO cute.
Think about little baby angels floating around in those
commercials.
I loved their house, particular their
nice plush soft leather sofas and the little hearth with an electric fire
The mum was truly open and tolerant of all our blundering questions
which was really good because we learnt lotsa stuff
which you probably couldn't have gotten from textbooks
as this was all about personal experience and feelings
Really nice.
I like it.
I think I might actually have overcomed my fear of little babies
It was really kinda funny because
this morning on the bus, me and Lyn were
discussing babies and she was
telling me that she didn't like babies
when they were in the stage where their heads were really small.
well, I agree with her,
they look fragile then.
Probably the trauma of having broken the heads barbie dolls off.
WELL, Mr Death ( my partner for this trip ) ( refer to below)
was not too bad.
I still think ( if not more than ever ) that he is a snotty nosed
arrogant prick. BUT still capable of holding a
decent conversation.
I found myself having to bring the freaking conversation back to
the mother and baby whilst he rambled on and on
about our medical course and at one point appeared to be giving her the
whole prospectus about the course. GEEZ!!!!!
sigh...
BUT it was not a disaster as I said, we had a very nice mum
and an ultra cute baby.
HOpe we get to see them next term.
GOo gooo GAh GAH...
