I love mine too, but her family seems to have taught her to keep distance with those not in her immediate family, so we do not see them often. Life is full of adjustments. My son seems happy so that is what is important to us. Though we did move clear across the country to be able to see them more often and live 40 minutes away by freeway. But again...life is change and life is adjustment and we have and are continuing to make those. It is wonderful to be close with family and it sounds like things are started off well!!

Errrmmm..I am just feeling a bit uneasy here about babies having been a topic of conversation though - so would appreciate reassurance here that it was her who raised the subject and that it was in the context of her saying how much she wants one and that she wants it to be soon - set my mind at rest.
