There is a point in everybody’s life when things change. Life changes. There is a single point when a switch just goes off and you are thrown. This is exactly what I felt like the very next morning Georgie was born. Looking at him I freaked out. Reality hit me hard. I was knackered, mourning the loss of my ab muscles and being helped by a stranger – nurse- into the shower and then into my knickers. But amidst the sore nipples and already sleepless nights I marveled. I marveled at something. Up until that moment I had never experienced such an overwhelming urge of intense feelings for anything. The Alps were impressive and going to New York Fashion Week was beyond real but looking down on this picture of perfection I was gone.

Georgie has been walking on and off for just over two weeks but over the weekend I noticed that the crawling has almost completely disappeared – aside from the super fast crawling he does when i pretend I’m running after him. It’s such a bizarre feeling seeing him walking around belly out arms up. It makes me realize how time has passed and my little skinny monkey has grown into a beautiful healthy boy whose hand i adore holding while he begins to explore.
The day, the experience, the genuine joy and smiles will never come back but it did give me an exciting taste of the many Christmases to come.
