Pippa: I've just read Jack's last post for the second time and for a second time, tears are streaming down my face. For all his joking and bravardery, he is a sensitive soul. This is why I love him so much- I am one of the few that get in, under the surface and behind the facade of the humourous work colleague, the geeky gamer, the dedicated sports fan, the carefree brother, the unreliable son. Behind all this, there's a man who loves me enough to do all that is necessary in order to make our dreams of a family come true.
I completely understand his anxieties. Of course, once we have a baby in our lives, everything will change. This waiting only gives us more time to think about what those changes may mean for us. This journey has definitely brought us closer together and I too will miss this period once it is finally over. I do hope that what we learn about ourselves and each other now, will help our relationship when, inevitably, life throws us another challenge.
In the meantime, Jack (or the cat) needn't worry about any 'upset to the pecking order'. I have plenty of extra love that I am keeping in reserve just in case. There will be no need to divide their share........
.........and there's not much chance of me giving up the biscuits either!
