wedding day 2002 by beach

Happy Wedding Anniversary for yesterday, dear. You forgot; I forgot.

Five years. Not bad.

Now, where’s my eternity ring? Other women get their ‘pushing presents’ after labour (no one tells you about that in the books) and what did I get? A clap on the shoulder and a “Good going, soldier.”*

I think my time has come…

*Naturally, I am exaggerating again. I made up the clap on the shoulder.
