My wife wrote a poem that moved me to some tears. I was in the middle of a partner hosted lunch when I saw it on my Blackberry.
I asked if she was ok, and if I should put in on my blog.
Here it is, something for us to remember her (she was sure it was a girl) by.
You Left
I knew it was you
I knew your name
I could feel your presence
Long before you came
I wanted to hold you tight
I wanted to keep you safe
Embrace you with love
Nurture you with faith
You did not stay
You did not wait
I did not know you left
Was I just too late?
So many questions unanswered
Appointment you had to keep?
Had you something real urgent?
That you left me here to weep?
Had I known, had I known
If only a farewell bade
I did not know you left
I was just too late

Hi Giovanni,
Thanks for the concern. We are better now.
I'd promise that we'll try for number two.
Rgds,
Vincent
I am so sorry to read abt this. As a mother, i can understand the pain and anguish. Hope both of u are ok now.
Hi Rachel
We are ok. Have to accept that this is part and parcel of life.
Sometimes when Lucas have a bad day, throwing tantrums and being grouchy, I wonder why I would want to subject myself to round 2.
But of course, there are the nicer moments too.
