The strangest thing just happened for the second time... Jen was just here for a visit, and we sat and chatted for a while over a couple of cups of coffee and then Jen was on her way and I saw her to the door and suddenly Bryn came running up behind us crying, and indicated that he really didn't want Jen to leave. This has happened once before when he was about 9-10 months old... I wonder if it was because Jen was one of my doulas and at his birth and therefore he's formed some sort of attachment from then (and since then we've seen Jen most weeks, sometimes two or three times a week), and so in a way he views her as family!!! And, he was upset for a solid five minutes after she left and had to have booby for comfort! There you go, Jen, Bryn obviously loves having you around!!!

The great riches of the few on this planet come at the personal cost of the many as is …
