I just wanted to note it somewhere - and where better than here!
My little babe - ds- (bubsy) is 3 today.
Without sounding yucky, I just need to say what a little joy he has been, and how he has personally made me feel capable of being an 'ok' mum (iykwim).
Of course we have had our moments, but, after having dd(a really difficult first child) I just want to say to anyone... don't judge your parenting capabilities on no 1.
I was totally crap - am still learning, but thanks to bubsy, this time I feel I am 'improving'.
So Happy Birthday little man, I love you, and thankyou for giving me another chance at being Ok.
