Hi James, Well that was an interesting experience LOL. Thanks for hanging in there. I hope the only problem the thunderstorm caused was your internet dropping out. I hung out with the little one for quite a while. She was happy to look around - but not to leave me. She stayed on my lap underneath the blanket, and kept checking back to look at my face to make sure I was still ā€œthereā€ - like being present to her. She doesn’t really understand the concept of ā€˜checking back in’ with her. At the moment I am crocheting a blanket. It’s got a lot of quite complex patterns, so I have to concentrate, but i told her that whenever I picked up the blanket to do another round of crochet, I would make space for her to come cuddle up next to me while I crochet. I think she understands that. And the whole blanket seemed very apt! šŸ˜€ I feel a lot more peaceful than I have in a long while. Still a bit teary eyed - but it’s ok. Thanks.

šŸ”¹ Parts:

  • Unkind disrespectful mean and rude (can’t get to)
  • Angry and also ashamed parts
  • Sad, sucking thumb. Twitchy and sensitive, hasn’t had a hug in decades ā€œit’s hardā€. The world is so big, I've been so little. Quiet, scared, didn’t know what to do!
  • Scrunching small (wouldn’t surprise me if this is who we were with)
  • šŸŽ“ What I'd like to do differently:

    A good test. If you could only send one message...? Fortunately Genie didn’t need much of me around.
