Re: Airport goodbyes/Separation anxiety/reunited bliss
I was going to take a few pics of the kids but Tara is covered from head to toe, including her hair with Carrot and rusk and has now fallen asleep in her high chair.
We've had an excellant 4 days in Berlin but not long enough. I've never been into history but was blown away by Berlin and found it incredible emotional journey. Especially learning the background history of the wall, and the methods people used to escape and life on different sides.
The children where with my parents and had a fabulous time and Tara had no problems remembering how to breastfeed when I got back which is what I did worry about. The only down fall was on Valentines when Ciaran insisted on getting a sausage on the street because he couldn't wait for dinner and an hour later was vomiting while at the same time saying' don't worry I'll be fine we can still have a romantic night'......eh no thanks! lets get you home to bed!
I've been on a course for doctors and nurses on Family planning and advising which was fantastic and I have 6 practical sessions still to do but looking forward to it. While I was there I saw a girl and recognised her but couldn't remember where, I knew she was very gentle and finally on the second day I remembered, she was the midwife who delivered Tara!! It was wonderful to meet her and she remembered us, actually filled me in on a few details I had forgotten! Again the emotions flowed, I had such a wonderful birth experience and anyone who was there at the time will have a special place in my heart.
Ciaran has started on his European Masters in Diaster Medicine which is taking up quite a bit of time and will be presenting his thesis synopses in Italy in a few weeks. He's also been shortlisted for the SpR EM so in March we will find out where we will be moving to Cork (possible), Galway(unlikely), Limrick(very possible but not our first choice), waterford (possibly again wouldn't be a first choice but better than Limrick eperience wise) or staying in Dublin (hopefully but only 1 place and unlikely to be that lucky).
