Stuck In The Middle With You

Hello again,

Recently I was in a situation where I was in the back of my 'family friendly' car with the babe and a family member. I was sat behind the driver, the babe in the middle and the other behind the passenger. It occurred to me that this seemed something of quite a significance. Me and this other had always been friendly but perhaps not that close. In previous times, we would probably have sat in the back, poles apart, the middle seat unoccupied. A great gap. Now, in this moment we were both entirely focused on the beautiful creature between us and each held an opposing hand, cooing and laughing.
This perfect beauty of a babe had brought us together. She had quite literally filled the space between myself and the other; physically and emotionally. We now had a joint purpose. One of the same.

I wondered how many other people the babe had fulfilled this enormous task upon. It's amazing how someone so small can make such a huge difference and not just to me, but to many others also. 

I highly suspect that of recent times I have become a bit of a bore and mostly insist on talking about the babe at all possible opportunities but the truth is, it has created moments between me and others that I never thought possible. 

Speak soon,
