We’d been trying to get pregnant for about three months when those twin lines decided to make an appearance, and we were in a mad rush to get out the door to go to a family christening (how apt). “I’ll just do another quick test” I thought to myself, for about the hundreth time that week (okay, maybe hundreth is a slight exaggeration but it was alot of tests, and im known to exaggerate so i need to go high so that when you knock it down, you’ll still appreciate id taken lots and lots) in between slapping the lipgloss on and stepping into my sparkly Gina shoes. I’d taken that many tests that had shown negative that week, I almost forgot I’d done it, so when I walked in and saw those perfect lines staring up at me, I had to hold it up for closer inspection. Could it be, was there really, did I want there to be so badly that I was imagining it? “mister!!!” (my name for your daddy amongst many others) “come here for a sec!!” Your grandma was downstairs and I didn’t want to break the news in a rush as we ran out the door, so I did a silent jig on the landing, whilst thrusting the pee’d upon stick in your daddy’s face. Which now that I recall the event is actually a little gross!! But completely ungrossed out, I’d never seen mister look so happy. We spent the whole day with our own little secret, and kept beaming a knowing smile at one another. Whilst sat in church for marley’s christening, I have to admit I said an extra big thankyou to whomever had blessed us. Unknowingly, at the reception later that day, whilst we were all having cuddles with Marley, grandma passed him to me adding… “let’s see how these 2 look with a baby?” We’d soon find out?!?
*i love this photo of that day - noone in the world knew about you but us*
