Sticky Baby

I was laying in bed last night when I realised with a warm glow in my heart what day it was. May 27th. The day your Daddy proposed to me, 2 years ago exactly.

I will never forget that day. Your dad had taken me to Paris for a little weekend getaway, but me being me, I didn’t suspect a thing.

After an unforgettable, romantic dinner in a quaint little ‘quartier’ in the City of Love, your Dad and I sat under the Eiffel Tower watching the light show that illuminates the Paris sky. I still had no idea.

The story is quite beautiful and when you’re a little bit older I promise to tell you all of it in detail.

But what you need to know is that on that night began a lifetime of love, adventure and dreams. And a very big part of that dream was the notion of you. All because two people fell in love...

I’ll never forget what your Dad said to me when he presented me with the most beautiful ring in the world. He said, ‘Now you have your very own light show on your finger’. And what warms my heart is watching you play with that ring now, your eyes wide, just the way mine were on that magical evening.

Those rings on mummy’s finger represent so much. Our unending love, our life, our world together. And you are now part of that, my precious boy. You make our little world go round. 

There will always be Paris and there will always be you.

Love,

Mum xo
