Babies

Aren't babies amazing little things? So perfect. Created from essentially a very sweaty sticky moment but such an incredible result. I'm joined in the office today by my friend's baby - Lily. She's just amazing. 5 weeks old and all wide eyed, staring at everything in amazement. I mean, I can appreciate why she's fascinated by me - even when I look in the mirror I can't help wondering what the hell is that..lol.. It's a strange thing holding a baby when I know I probably won't have one of my own. Not that my body clock has stopped ticking quite yet but there's certainly no foreseeable way I could manage it. I feel ever closer to my niece and nephew as a result. And other peoples babies get an extra cuddle. For the magnificence of creation and for the fact that I probably won't get to look into the eyes of my own. But who knows? Nobody really knows what's around the corner and maybe my girlfriend and I will just decide to have babies at the same time and cause complete chaos in our lives...scary thought. I think what babies really do is make me think there must be something greater than all of us, to have created such an amazing process, to bring forth life from cells alone. Hmmm. Check me out being all philosophical lol. I think it's time to make some tea..
