Take a look at this picture. What's missing? Well, in approximately two weeks we'll find out! Boy or Girl, there's another Button Copeland joining the family and to be honest it's only just hit me! With our first child (Aurora May Anne) every week of George's pregnancy was a new drama. In total we had 13 scans, that's a lot! With this pregnancy there has been two, ridiculously normal and therefore the 38 weeks have flown by. Forgotten are the days of no sleep, peanut butter poos and random 2am screaming. These are all to be reprised, damn. Although there are lots of bad things on the horizon there are infinitely more good thing coming our way. Rory (Aurora) won't be happy, but she'll get used to her new brother/sister, We'll lose sleep, money and no doubt our minds, but we wouldn't have it any other way. You see, when you become a parent you realise that it's worth all of this plus dragging yourself to work everyday because you grow up and become responsible, not because you're mature or successful but because you bloody have to or someone who isn't you goes hungry, gets ill or goes without love and comfort. I've been a Dad for 18 months and I still haven't screwed it up. There's hope in us all! Tom
