welcome...

When we arrived back in Buxton after visiting Macclesfield, I discovered I had a text. I read the following and practically jumped and down with glee:

What a hoot! Margot Tess M----, 6lb 9, accidentally born at home after a brief-ish labour. All utterly hilarious. She is a beauty. X

Part of me was dying to know whether she'd actually been born that morning, or, fingers crossed, the day before - 29th February...

This evening I finally managed a visit to go say hi. I *always* forget just quite how tiny and fragile new born babies are. Mewww.
