what is one thing that means everything to you that would be completely irrelevant to anyone else?
after dealing with infertility for ages for no reason, my wife dealt with labor for almost 40 hours. this was after viv was 2 weeks overdue because of course the most stubborn child in north america isn’t ready to eject.
so after almost 40 hours of labor, we finally know our daughter is safe and healthy, the nurses take her away to care for her to try to let us sleep and we do. we wake up, they bring her back and bring us breakfast.
so we have breakfast - eggs, fruit, whatever. and i had a cranberry juice and this was my cup. i knew i wanted it because the pour size was perfect. so i snatched it.
i don’t drink whiskey every day, but when i do, i use this cup and every single time, i remember what we went through and i’m grateful and thankful every single time...
