He's Here !
Without Prejudice
He's here at last, looking like he is meant to. My great Grandson Andrej Bryce Hawkins.I cried when I came home, shed a tear for Kyle's tears as his son was born. Mladenka was relaxed and serene when I saw her. A born Mother, I can tell ! Born in 3 short hours, not bad for a first. He's gourgeous and he's mine, another generation for me. Great grandmother.
I looked at Mladenka and was breathless at her contentment and I stroked her hair and said'
"It's been a long journey to here "
She nodded, she knew what I meant. Not the labour, her entire jouney to this culmination had been long and arduous, sometimes dangerous even. But she's made it, she lives as she deserves to.
I see Kyle and he is bigger somehow, just bigger and ke kisses me and says to his friend this is my Nan, no explanation needed, I give myself away by the grin on my face. And when I kiss Maldenak and say well done, there is a tiny mewl and there he is. My first great grandchild. I fall in love just like that. He has a red mark on his cheek from forceps, his skin is so soft.
Kyle says that his skin is so soft too almost in wonderment, as I stroke the babies cheek. He is one hour old. One hour and immediately I want him. I want to grab him and run home with him. A "freshy", a new born, is there no end to the joys of life ? Tiana and Tegan are with me, they are 13 and 12, just the age Lauren was when Kyle was born. And I remembered her delight then too.
And how Donna Hawkins and her robbed the flowers in the Hospital Gardens and took them to Yvette. And now Mandy, Donna's sister is no longer with us and Donna takes care of her kids. And how Lauren died only 2 weeks later. But the memories are not sad, not today the day of my beautiful boys birth. All my memory is tinged with a lit up glow, the sun is suddenly shining and the sky clears. I want to tap dance home not drive
