The Reveal

I read something recently which really stuck with me. It was about not saying Sorry.

Instead you replace Sorry with Thank You. “Sorry I’m late” becomes “Thank you for waiting!”, “Sorry for rambling…” becomes “Thank you for listening.” and so on. It’s just a small way of turning little negatives into positives, and when you add them all up it leads to a pretty big attitude adjustment. It might sound silly, but try it! See how you get on.

So anyway, thank you for your patience over the last few weeks. I know I haven’t been in touch much.

I’ve been hiding away in the countryside for what feels like a lifetime.

I’ve missed our connection, I’ve so wanted to share but just haven’t been able to.

The little project I mentioned has been all encompassing.

But I’m tired of waiting, if I don’t tell you now I know I’ll just burst!

Today seems as good as any other to share what it is I’ve been working on.

Although rather than what I suppose I should say who… 

…because you see, I have someone to introduce you to.

Baby Londoner!

Our little secret project.

I can’t tell you how excited I am not only to meet this little person, but to be able to share the journey.

My first trimester was not quite what I expected, I’ve been suffering from severe morning sickness so have barely left bed, except to lay beneath the trees and dive into book after book, hoping to take my mind off it.

As I head into the second trimester there seems to be light at the end of the tunnel and I’m feeling much better, though it does seem to come in waves!

I’m going to head home to London this week and with any luck get back on track.

Though perhaps a little slower than before!

I cannot wait to see what this new chapter of my story brings.

All I do know is that this little person is going to be very, very loved.
