Went into town yesterday pretending to be just healthy: library, coffee, some shopping, lots of stops sitting down, gorgeous lunch in BGout upstairs as far away from the crowds as possible. Exhausted but happy to be back in the world. Asked R what he wants for his b'day next week and he said: you to be happy and well again. I could not speak for some time.
If P, tells me that that's what she wants for her birthday, it would make me speechless too.
ReplyDeleteIt's a gift that is not easy to come up with, to give. It would lay heavy on me. I would wish she would ask me something else, something that I can handle, can actually give, something that would make me feel that there is something I can actually do to make her happy.
Because that is one gift I cannot give, on time.
