I hadn’t even thought about a nursery, or even bought any
baby related items before Lily arrived…her impatience and early arrival gave me the opportunity to do things in reverse. I have spent the last few
weeks pottering in Lily’s room getting it ready for that special day when she
comes home. It was an important milestone for Mr T and I. The day we thought it
was time to get the nursery ready, was the day we felt more secure and
confident about the future of our Lily. Before that it felt too soon, too
fresh, too presumptuous.
It is such a nice spot in the house, it’s nice and
bright and the sun pours in all day. I have had so much fun putting it together.
I chose a grey colour for the walls, with white furniture… and then went
rainbow bright on accessories in the end. I picture little Lily rolling around
on her rug and hiding under the cot from Mummy and Daddy at bed time in the future.
I spend a lot of time in there already, as this is where I express; Mr T often joins me in the morning while he eats his brekky. Sammy,
thoroughly approves as she has discovered the second warmest place in the house
under her new favourite heater duct, and also likes to sit on the felt ball
rug.
