This weekend, my poor boy has come down with the dreaded chickenpox and these pictures were actually taken on day one of the spots; it's only been a few days but it already seems like so long ago now we're in the midst of such an awful illness. He's covered head to toe, not eating or drinking much and has had a really hard time, and all I want to do is make them disappear so we can go back to healthy smiles like these.

I saw a beautiful photo today of a pregnant Mother and her daughter (about A's age) having the hugest cuddle on a hospital bed saying goodbye to one another before they went through the induction process and brought a second baby into the world. It was so beautiful and heartbreaking and just captured the feeling I know I'll have at not only falling in love with another child but saying goodbye to a time where Archie was my only focus - in a few weeks, baby #2 will be here and as wonderful as that will be, it's also the end of a relationship between my only son and I and the beginning of a relationship all 3 of us will build together.
