Hello from Deborah Kirsten

Hello darling girls

After MUCH deliberation I have decided that I am not going to try and swing the trip to Natal. With James only 5 weeks old, the two hour flight, the winter weather and having to leave Joshua here at home, I just think it is bad timing. Usually I would have attempted it but James has also developed a touch of colic and this is a ripe royal pain and although it is not bad at all, it is exhausting! (Joshua never had any colic so it is new to me).

The dynamics with the new baby and Joshua (who is now 3) are also a little tricky and I feel that it might not be the right time, with all that is going on in his little head, for me to up and leave with James - he's just a bit sensitive at the moment.
My folks also leave on the Monday for overseas and are crazy busy over that weekend so it would be tough for mom to be left with the small baby for most of the day - and night...(because I know you gals will party into the night...don't let the St. Annes side down).

So chics, I am going to be MISSING YOU ALL SO, SO MUCH and am just so sad not to be coming, but motherly duties are screaming at me in a big way and it is just one - ANOTHER ONE - of those sacrifices that a mother has to make :-(

The last reunion - for those who were there - was SUCH a special time and we just couldn't get enough time in to chat, chat and chat some more! It was so special and made me so appreciate all the wonderful friends that we made at St. Annes.

You girls are the greatest and I will be thinking of you SO much. Have a blast and YES I WILL BE AT THE NEXT REUNION FOR SURE!!!
Lot of love to you all and let me know how the weekend pans out - bet it will be magical to catch up!

All love
Debs xoxoxoxo
