Alba Elise

There is nothing but the hum of the cars driving down the hill outside our flat and the soft breathing of my baby girl strapped to me in a fabric sling. Little mouth open, one arm up and fist slightly clenched.

At 3.50am on September 30th, Alba Elise came into our world and made everything brighter, shinier, more fun, exciting and full of a new and wonderful kindness and love. Oh the love for our family of three. In the 22 days that we have known her, our love for this little girl of ours as each day's sun rises has somehow grown and blossomed even more than I thought possible.
