Flower Child
Only two weeks ago, I became the mother of a very beautiful baby girl. She is the most perfect thing that I have ever seen and I am madly in love with her. She makes me want to be a good person and I already have such big hopes and dreams for her. Although, she makes my life so perfect, my stay at the hospital was definitely less than perfect.
By the second day, they were still feeding me soup broth and tea and I was absolutely starving. My husband had to actually go and talk to someone about giving me something to eat, so I would have the energy to nurse my baby. It seems as though they had just forgot to change me to a normal diet. Even then, the food was awful and the nurses were cranky.
My in-laws brought me a beautiful bouquet of flowers. The hospital shuns all fragrances, but instead of asking my husband to take the flowers home where we could enjoy them, they came into my room and took the flowers away to the trash. I was furious. I am now at home and am able to enjoy my little girl a lot more than I was there. Thank goodness.
