Emily is 5!

well almost! As  i write this  I was in tremendous labour pains, pushing as i recall and at 8:05pm, Emily was born! oh that feeling of holding your first born in your arms is just like nothing else in the world is it! hmmm.

And how she has grown! Today was weird as it was the first birthday she (or lucy for that matter) has had where she has not been with me/ us. i could not wait to get her home this evening! i really missed her today.I mean we did see her during the day today as it was her first nativity play too and reception were singing . Oh it was lovely, so beautiful and simple. We really enjoyed it.

this jumper was one of her presents today. I tisf from frugi (organic company) and i just love it! wish i could have one!

And of course there was a birthday crown which she wore all day today at school. notice the crocheted flowers!

All in all i think she had a good day. It always makes us mothers a little sad at the end of a birthday doesnt it as it certainly makes me thnk "where has that year gone?" and "how i wish time would still for longer"

Happy birthday to my baby.
