100 Words - revisited

My daughter is exactly five weeks old today and I am desperate to start writing again. So to help me get started I am going to revisit an old but trusty theme of writing one hundred words a day on any random topic that catches my interest/ attention. I have always enjoyed doing this in the past as, in addition to never knowing what I may be writing about, I find it very challenging to be able to capture my thoughts and observations in just 100 words - It’s a strangely therapeutic exercise. I am looking forward to it already.

In Celebration of Two Birthdays

On the 25th of May, 2007 I gave birth to my beautiful daughter, Gabriella. Although she was born three weeks early she was in perfect health. The labour and birth were absolutely amazing – it took all of two hours!! She popped out at 6:18am and by 7:00 pm I was back at home. Please celebrate this Birth Day with me!!

Your newness leaves me breathless
My beautiful one

And happy 1st birthday to One Deep Breath. Thank you for drawing out a hidden talent I never knew I possessed – the ability to Haiku! Up until ODB I never even knew what a Haiku was, so thank you!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
