Baby blue
I'm meeting my friend tomorrow afternoon for chocolate, pepsi and quite possibly (if the mood takes her) some ham.
My friend is the first person I have ever known to be intentionally pregnant.
I am daunted by this. I am daunted by the fact that rather than my friends who screw up their noses at the thought of kids and then light another cigarette, this girl has another person about to come into her (and her husbands) life and she can't wait.
I can't stop imagining the roles reversed and wondering how it must feel to be her at the moment. Terrifying and wonderful are the first words that leap into my head.
Terrifying mainly (for me) because I am so far removed from being even close to what she has.
I just can't believe that one day I will have kids, as being the youngest in my entire family I have never even HELD a baby.
Sod the nightmare teenage years - late 20's is a way more stressful adjustment period in a girls life!
I find myself sitting here (making my party plans for tonight) wondering - when will the Met Bar become Mothercare? When will Champagne become Ribena? When will a baby become the new black for me?
Until that time, I guess I'll just nip out for a marlboro light.
