“Okay, bye.” I hang up.

Now it’s just a waiting game.

I pace.

Charlotte’s Diary

04/02/21

Happy Birthday Phoenix! Can’t believe it’s been a year already; where did the time go? I know every mother gushes about how fast time flies but it honestly feels like yesterday that I was bringing you home from the hospital in your tiny Harry Potter onesie and hat. You were so so small, and now look at you!

We didn’t do much to celebrate your birthday - spending a couple of hours at Grandmama’s house (she spoilt you rotten with all sorts of things that no one year old could ever need!) and then you, me and Baxter went to the park. Yes it was freezing, but you loved being pushed on the swings, so it was worth it to see your face light up and hear your perfect little laugh that sounds like pure sunshine.

I’m writing this note to you in my diary, but I’m going to tear it out and put it in your keepsake box for when you are older. You may not have the biggest family, but you aren’t short on love, and you never will be, my darling.
