annanotbob2's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- With Son Woo hoo. Son came down today, for Great-Nephew's second birthday bash, which was a whole family gathering at Niece's. but he came here first. He was hungry so I made him toast and jam - my bread that I made and two varieties of home made jam that I'd made, all very delicious and the whole thing pleasing to me at a deep level, to my surprise. When I think about it, though, of course it was pleasing - it's one of the fundamental urges, to feed your offspring nourishing food and although that urge quite rightly wears off (wears right off when the fuckers can get their own bloody food), after a long separation it just felt satisfying and peaceful. Bloke didn't come to the meal as he's got a nasty bug, so it was just me and Sis and all our kids, partners and all their kids. Grandson came with Daughter which was cool, in fact it was all cool, very chilled and easy. Son and I went to 'our' beach for a swim and he talked and talked, telling me all kinds of stuff, like we used talk. We didn't get into what happened to cause the separation, which is good. I think we need to spend some time together first, rebuilding our relationship, which after today feels really possible, even probable. I can't tell you how good it feels - I've missed him, I've missed us, so much. 11:47 p.m. - 10.09.23 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
