"Hello mum. I love you."
"Hello sweetie. Wow, you're a mum and I'm a mum! We're both mums! There's two mums and one daughter in this conversation!"
"I don't know if that will ever stop being odd."
"What did Zeljko give you for Mother's Day?"
"So far, a blank look."
Although he did offer to go out and buy ingredients to make me a meal after he'd remembered he'd forgotten. Which is the point when I shoved the baby in his arms and shoved them both out of the door and forbade them to come back for 2.5 hours while explaining lovingly that fuck flowers and chocolates the most precious and needful gift is some time all to myself.
I have now been enjoying one hour of freedom and it tastes sweeeeeeeet.
parenthood,
bittersweet
