The last 3 weeks that I have spent planning and organizing little bun's birthday party was all over in a flash yesterday. We invited a small(ish) group of family and close friends over to celebrate little bun's 1st birthday with us in advance since the actual day falls on a weekday. Mark and I have taken the day off on this Thur to spend the day with our birthday boy.
Mark and I (little bun too) were totally/ utterly knackered by the time the party was over, but it was really fun and worth every bit of the tiredness. 4 years ago after I lost Lucas, I would never imagine that there'd be a day I'd be celebrating the 1st birthday of my own child. Things got even bleaker after I lost Chloe and I subsequently had to struggle for a long time with my (lack of) fertility. Having a child seem to be the most impossible thing ever... let alone celebrating his first birthday.
So yesterday was like a dream come true... a miracle has happened and my precious little boy has been with us for one year! Such an amazing and wondrous feeling.. rather surreal too. Have you ever had a dream and then find yourself in a real-life situation that is exactly like what happened in the dream? That was how I felt like yesterday.
