a fifo wife {fifo life: me: B2 is five today}

My B2 is five today. Five years old where did that time go. Everyone says blink of an eye, its not even that. I hate birthdays hate them. Well hate is a strong word..I want them to be my babies forever but they cant I know I know its a catch 22.

B2 was the cutest, ugliest and smallest of my babies. Nine pound exactly and threes weeks early he has the biggest most generous soul and yes I said ugliest becasue well he was long and wrinkly like his skin didnt fit him yet.He looked like an old man and in many ways he is he is an old soul but now he is fast becoming a very spunky monkey (he takes after his mother after all). B2 he thinks before he speaks. He is thoughtful and caring. He is funny and quick witted. He is smart. He protects me like a hawk and equally watches over his brothers that way. This year has seen him grow from a little boy into the beginnings of a beautiful young man. I’m beyond proud of him. He is all and all yum.

Last week the night before picking up daddy we where discussing a problem about ice cream sundaes. Before going to the airport to collect daddy we had decided we where going to the 24 hours McDonalds in the city to have a play, ice cream and stretch our legs. We chose our flavours and headed off to bed with much, much excitement.

We all laid down in my big bed my other two soon fell asleep I lay there excited that FIFO husband would be home then out of the darkness came, mum Im worried that daddy might be upset about not having an ice cream sundae. That’s not fair that he misses out. We should wait until he gets home and then go. Well bubba I said daddy doesn’t get in until midnight and we could go then but I know that you might be very very tired and daddy also. How about we ask daddy in the morning before he gets on the chopper what he would like to do. Yes okay he said. He wasn’t really okay with that answer, we should take an esky and some ice we could buy it then he could eat it in the car. Okay bubba I said.

He is the most wonderful beautiful soul.

Happy birthday my baby,

Xx Mum.
