I couldnt believe it. Not half an hour after James left for work and little Daphne arrives.
I'm not sure if I was more worried about being alone, or becoming a parent! Thats all passed now though. All I have to do is look into her eyes and I know everything is ok.
We bought a crib and change table, on James' small salary thats pretty much all we could afford at the moment. I'm afraid to say it but I think I'm going to have to get a job. I started a small vegi patch so we can grow our own food, at least we wont have to worry about groceries anymore, but we still need money to buy necessities - clothes, toys for Daphne, a dining table. James wants me to hold off on getting a job, he says everything will be fine if we just wait it out. He thinks he's going to get a promotion soon. Being the only police officer in the entire district must be hard on him though, even if the only crime ever reported in Ashby Falls was because of me.
For now, I'm happy being a stay at home mother, but if James ever thinks we could use some extra cash, I'll be jumping right in.
