A new life

Apologies to all who have been following my blog. It has been an awefully long while since I blogged on this site. No reason except being plain "burnt out". My last entry was some 10 months ago. Enough time for a baby to gestate and be born. Hehe . Not that I will be able to do that anyway.
Talking of babies. There have been a lot among my colleagues in office. Two of them have just given birth in two different private hospitals, both by Ceasarian. Two others are pregnant, one in hospital today and another due in January. Few others are planning to have one each. One male colleague has been taking emergency leave. His wife is about to deliver too. Suddenly , I am surrounded by so much baby talk.
Among my classmates and previous colleagues,this topice has been long gone. Our children are getting married or married and have children of their own or going to.
How would it be to relive the era of babysitting ? Tiring , I am sure. But with that, the joy of feeling a new life in your embrace. The feelings of mothering will flood the granny's life and cause apprehension as well as youthful joy. New life , new hope.
