'I was talking to this girl I work with, you may have met her before, well, she was asking me what my plans were, you know, over the next year or two. I said, to try and save, put away what I can, maybe get a place. I asked her the same question and she was like 'well, start a family' and I was like, really!?' Chris explained to me beneath his headphones whilst engrossed in his laptop.
'Well, I can understand that, she's married, nearly 30, I can see why that would be on her agenda' and I went on to say how most ladies feel these urges not far into our twenties. I jokingly added 'awww I've been feeling so maternal recently' and he seemed surprised. It made me realise that these things I worry about mentioning are rarely ever mentioned at all, so I suppose it would seem to be a new change of tact to him. The conversation was light but it felt nice to talk about it seriously - I mean, not like 'lets set the date' sort of serious, but nice to vocalise it. We got a bit tearful at the idea of our little one being a little owl and that it would be the most loved thing in the whole world...It is lovely to see him get all emotional. I know he wouldn't want one this year or probably the next but who knows. It's nice to just hear these things banded about every now and then. I just hope not to go overboard and freak him out haha.
I also hope that these urges will die down soon because it is very distracting in my mind.
