Drenched with love

I'm blessed blogger friends, hand on heart my life is blessed with so much love, care and affection that it bowls me over; seriously I am so very fortunate and as a result so very happy. It's just been the best day - I thought yesterday was good, but today has knocked it for six, it's knocked me for six too; it's been totally and utterly perfect in every single way. It's like someone upon a higher plane has pointed my life out and decided to make it awesome, I kid you not, life surely cannot be this good through fortune alone; I hope it lasts and lasts forever.

The day started off like yesterday in most respects, my baby and I have both been working today; hence the alarm woke us up early morning and I awoke to find my baby's arm draped over my chest. Which was lovely enough all on it's own, it's nigh on a perfect way to wake up in the morning but he was lay right up close against my body and I could feel he had some morning glory going on downstairs; it was kind of digging into my side, it was awesome. That's where the perfect start kind of ended in that respect because we both had to get up and get ready for work; whereas all that was on my mind and all I really wanted to do was to take advantage of my baby's state of obvious arousal. No such luck boys and girls!

At around 8 o'clock whilst at work I decided to check my phone, more out of curiosity than anything else; I wasn't expecting any text play as yesterday from my baby but guess what? I was in luck, my baby had sent a text message that had me in fits of laughter, I was sat in the canteen on my own laughing away to myself - if anyone had walked in on me they'd have thought I'd gone completely mad. Amongst other things he asked if a certain part of my anatomy was okay after last night; I'll leave you to guess which part of my anatomy he was referring to - I don't think it needs much detective work to figure out! Suffice to say I sent one back telling him I was surprised that he was able to wake up this morning with an erection after the workout he gave it last night; surprised but not unhappy at the fact by the way!

The morning whiled away in happy smiles and happy feelings until about 12.30 when my folks arrived; as promised they made a trip down to see me. I'm lucky in many respects with my work that I'm able to put some time aside and I'm allowed to spend some time with my folks when they visit me. I don't see my folks very often and it's rare that I get to spend a great deal of quality time with them - it's certainly not as much as I'd like to anyway; and here's another point. You know when you're looking forward to seeing someone or doing something so much that when the time arrives it can be a bit of a disappointment? Because you've been guilty of overhyping it to some degree? Today was not one of those times, it's been the story of my day; we were all on seriously good form - me, my mum and my stepdad; and it showed. I've not had so much fun and enjoyment with my folks in ages, seriously it was devastatingly beautiful and better than I could ever have wished for. There are not words to describe how good it actually was and that is not a lie, hand on heart that is nothing but the truth.

I spent all afternoon with them - and I mean all afternoon, right up until I finished my shift, they even dropped me off at home on their way back home themselves. We had lunch together and then we went out shopping; and this is a measure of how good it was - my stepdad who despises shopping even enjoyed himself! It was one of those afternoons where everything just kind of fitted together perfectly; all the pieces of the puzzle, just everything. It reminded me of going shopping with my baby, we just went from shop to shop browsing, pointing stuff out to each other, stopping for coffee, having a seriously good time along the way and spending way too much money in the process. Not that you can spend too much money on your mum can you? Because as hoped for I managed to sort my Mums christmas presents out, and to some tune! Despite her years my mum is seriously trendy and cool; it showed in what I bought her today, what my stepdad bought her and what she bought herself. There's one thing in particular that had me green with envy, seriously I so wanted it myself, it's just so cool that it lives up to its name in spades. In fact everything we bought was cool and trendy, absolutely everything - even my stepdad must have caught the bug because he bought the coolest scarf; there was not one single thing we bought where I could say anything else.

My mum even became my fashion advisor; I'd seen a pair of fleece track pants that I wanted as the final part of my Christmas present so we went into JD Sports to buy them. I showed them to my Mum and she wasn't overly struck, however she pointed out another pair that she really liked - a pair that I'd not paid any kind of attention to. Guess which pair I've got for Christmas? That's right, I took my mums fashion advice and truth be told, although unsurprisingly, they are cool and in a colour way that I don't already own. I've no idea how much money we ended up spending between us but it was a serious amount whatever it was; between us I'm certain we've managed to spend the country out of recession in a single afternoon. It was worth it, for every last penny we spent it was worth it and for every second we spent together it was worth it; it was one of those times when I could feel the love between us lingering heavy in the air - but whereas such feelings are normally fleeting this one lasted all afternoon. It really did feel like the magic of Christmas was in the air, it's exactly what this time of year is all about, it didn't disappoint.

Even my baby noticed tonight, I guess it shows so much; he told me he'd not seen me so happy and that I was happier than my normal happy self. I've not stopped talking about it with him, I've been a serious chatterbox and he adores the presents I've bought my mum. To top all off my baby and I are going out for a few beers tonight - it's going to be the perfect end to a perfect day. I'm just so happy, for the best part of 24 hours I've been surrounded by people I cherish, I've been drenched with love................
