EMOTIONS

. . . silly things, funny things, thought-provoking things and even statistics are all moving me to tears at the moment.

10 days til I meet my baby, that's unbelievable to me at the moment. But I've focused so much on when I meet her that I was totally overwhelmed this morning as I realised that I leave a week from tomorrow - HOLY COW!

The wonderful T has been organising me, some of the time without me even realising. She's following my plans but without being asked. I went into the nursery last night - I knew that the painting should have been finished, I hadn't realised she'd hung the new lampshade (white with pink fairies and flowers embroidered on it!). The new carpet is due to be laid next Wednesday but the changing table won't arrive until while we're away.

T had also moved the corner cupboard out of the sitting room and made it fit in the dining room - where it looks good and it will probably stay (instead of being sold) which is good as I like the china it displays and it will be nice to have a more 'grown-up' room! She's also set up 1 of the 4 sets of 'BabyDans' as a fire guard in the drawing room, 2 of the others will be playpens (1 up and 1 down stairs!) and the 4th was supposed to be a fireguard around the wood-burner that I'm still wondering about, but I also need to use 1 as a room divider in the hall so it won't go to waste!

We're getting there, but no doubt there are more tears (mostly happy) to come in the next few weeks!
