3 hours of sweetness to share a passion. First in French, then joined by a Polish family, we switched to English with some French again to facilitate learning. Lison-Edouard, born a little early, 3 weeks and freshly out of the neonatal care unit, weighs just 3kg. He fits in the palm of the hand, covered with ebony hair and so small he reminds us how fast little ones grow. Bruno seems huge by his side, although he is only 2 months. He has big eyes, neither blue nor gray, they will light up soon, judging by the azure eyes of his parents.
3 hours to ask questions, to reassure, to explain the safety rules, to show, to do, to redo, to practice. 3 hours with Hugo, Ergobaby doll, weighted and resembling a new born. 3 hours cadenced by baby bottles, feeds, changing nappies and little squeaks proper to such little babies.
Sunday was ring sling workshop for little ones, and 4 times I had the joy and privilege to carry too.
Passion and patience, book recommendations, links to be sent, giving confidence to parents, listening, sharing knowledge and experiences. Talking to the babies before taking them on me, soothing them. Happy parents, wonderful little ones, oxytocin flowing and a Sunday afternoon that gives a smile. Thank you!
