Watch This Only If You Want to Feel Good
So my sister had a baby yesterday, and I discovered one of the most intense places on Earth: peering into the nursery window in the maternity ward of a hospital.
Everyone is looking through the glass watching their baby get measured and cleaned up and sleep and get to experience being alive for the first few hours. Every person you stand next to you is in the midst of one of the joyful moments in their whole life and everyone says “Congratulations” to each other instead of “hi.” It is like a real life airport scene from Love Actually, which I know not everyone loves (Emma Thompson, I’m looking at you), but I mean, come on. That ending and that Beach Boys song. Ok, this is my last Aunt post of the day, unless someone wants to make this happen.
