Growing Soft

Saw Dorothy, Yowneng, Faith and 2 month old Issac this afternoon. Yowneng spotted shorter hair while mine is now much longer, Dorothy remains very slim after childbirth, Issac looks strong and alert, and Faith looks happy and less reserved than before.
While explaining my purpose in Melbourne this trip to help pack up to move to a new home, I shared with Yoweneng and Dorothy how emotional I got each time I packed Kristine's and Kimberley's belongings. In a powerful way, the memories of the toys they played, the books they read, the places they slept, the bathtubs they soaked in, the shampoo they used all surged to my eyes in the form of tears. I couldnt hold back. I chocked. Right in front of Dorothy and Yowneng.

Dorothy was most sympathetic. I think I surprised Dorothy and Yowneng with the display.
