Birthday no. 2

Willow opened her eyes today! I've been thinking of her as still in the womb - Albiet an artificial one- whilst she was so supported by machines and paralysed by her drugs. So today, I can think of her as starting to be here.

We took Briar out the hospital to go register their births (I'm pleased willow has both her actually birthday and her waking up birthday on her certificate. The building we has to go to to register was beautiful, but it was a totally different experience from if we'd been home in Ullapool. Briar also got her first trip to a coffee shop.

When they weighed Briar tonight she'd put on 60g- think that's more than Ivy managed in a week at her age.
