My Son

On this day at 04:19, weighing in at 5lbs 15oz my beautiful first born son came into the world. So tiny and wearing a bright yellow knitted hat he had to go under a lamp for a while to warm him up.

He never cried, but made a funny little squeaking noise, I named him pipsqueak for the first few days as the name I had chosen didn't suit him. He remained Pip for the first 8 or 9 years before deciding Phil was far more grown up.

My beautiful baby boy turned 18 today. He is much loved xx
