I have such a friend crush on my new friend Rosie. She was the midwife who was at Nina’s birth. She wasn’t the midwife who did all the prenatal and postnatal care but because the labour was so long my midwife had to leave and she came on for the last 5 hours or so. Anyway, we all thought she was so great and I have been hoping to bump into her ever since. I was very excited when I discovered that we had a number of mutual friends.

Then one night at a party Carney met her and she told her that I really wanted to be her friend. I was so embarassed that I kind of stopped wanting to bump into her. Finally, we did though out at Ellery Creek a few weekends back. We got chatting and Carney came up. I told her how embarassed I was and then she said that she was really happy because she wanted to be my friend too.

So on the weekend I invited her over with a few of our mutual friends. It was a lovely afternoon. Turns out that Rosie is also a vegetarian, was attending a Quaker meeting in Darwin, makes yummy cakes out of vege peels because she hates waste, love love stories and wants to be a hippo so she can lie around in mud all day. How cool is she?
