16 years ago, at 12:25 p.m., Amanda my daughter made a grand and premature entry into the world, she was born in 7 months and three weeks and scared the beejeesus out of us.
In 16 years of motherhood, I have been elated, elevated, ecstatic, irritated, buggered and battered. Makes you mortal, vulnerable and defenceless while keeping you at the top of the world.
Amanda is an old soul.. she tears me apart with her silences and when she does laugh and live uninhibitedly, she makes this life worth a zillion times than it really is.
My greatest teacher... is my daughter and thank what heavens may be for that!
