The day was packed beautifully. The detailed ultrasound scan, the long leisurely breakfast, the baby-everything shopping, the slow walk down the town, and finally back home to a delirious boy. Because the sun is gentle and the clouds are back, we strolled the boy for a good one and a half hours. The huddy packed in two apples and some cherries in a bag of ice, yakult for me and beer for him. How very lovely.
I like feeling the late afternoon sun warm on my face. The huddy ran with the boy, while I lumbered behind with the baby in my tummy. Then they ran back to me, and we walked side by side, hand in hand, like how I imagined a little happy family to be.
It’s gonna be a baby girl. Latte’s getting a baby sister.
She will be loved.

it’s a girl it’s a girl it’s a girl! damn and i was so sure it’ll be a boy.
