Polish tea party
Every afternoon, Annie and I have a Polish tea party.
This involves us having some fruit or raisin toast.
I have some tea.
She has some milk.
We sit at her little table and speak Polish.
Realistically she asks me what certain words are and I do my best to tell her.
A lot of the time, I tell her that I don't know.
This goes on for about five minutes and then she has had enough Polish.
The point is that it is a special time for me and her.
I realised today that I have been so preoccupied with the baby coming that I have not been making the most of these special times.
I am now making a conscious effort to take it all in.
Because this too, shall pass.
