My new Great Niece Evelyn is so tiny! I've been to see her about five times and I can't stay away, she's too cute! Focusing on nice happy things is helping. And I need all the help I can get.

Take as much paternity leave as you need. Especially once Evie gets out of the hospital she's going to need a lot of extra love and care.

	I have all these little bottles of colouring gels in my kitchen that I keep forgetting to use so if you feel like accompanying me on this baking adventure then I propose we make the rainbowiest cakebomination the world has seen. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I appreciate it. Thanks. I feel like I still need to *do* something while I'm waiting? It's gonna be another couple of weeks probably until she's released. Maybe I do mornings until then? I know I left things unfinished on Friday and I promised people I'd help them with other stuff

Sorry. It's a bit of a mess, and I've already stretched your generosity once before. Listen, if you ever have need of work done that is... well, any work done at all, you know I'm the first guy you call.

	If you want to! I thought you would be at the hospital. We can work out anything you'd like. Don't apologise! You're taking care of my great niece. You're not stretching my generosity! You didn't before either. We're good, Will. You do what you need to do. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I will be. I'm still going in. Just there are like... I dunno man. Aderyn is there all the time but including me there are at least five other people on rotation, sometimes I feel. Well it's hard to explain? Like- I dunno. Her brother is there when I'm not, she's not sitting there alone. Sometimes I want to pretend I'm not thinking about it constantly for a while.

Anyway. Social welfare is about sharing the load, right? So if you need me, I'm there.

	I think I know what you might be able to do for me. Unless this isn't okay... Can I...come over for dinner? Just sometime this week? I am very lonely. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Patrick rouge_rogue 2021-06-19 11:30 am UTC (link)
	Oh wow I was expecting something much less socially acceptable than a meal. Yeah of course. There's a possibility I might be cooking? In which case I hope you like stew. I'm sorry you're lonely, that must suck (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Will shamrocked_ 2021-06-19 11:32 am UTC (link)
	You were expecting something less socially acceptable? What on earth do you think I need help with? I love stew. And yes. It does suck. I appreciate this. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well... anything. At all. Anything. Good! Cos stew is about all I can cook. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
