ailbheWhat's your favourite non-living object? Argh. This one is really hard. I'm not terribly attached to any one thing. Oh! I know! My house! My house! I love my house.
Is mothering getting any easier with time and experience? Self-confidence makes ALL the difference. ALL of it. Experience of not having caused a disaster creates self-confidence. Time and experience inevitably go together. So yes, I'd say.
PMS makes it harder.
Are you happy that you married Rob? Depends on what you mean by married. I'm happy we are committed life partners. I'm delighted we're co-parents. I'm thrilled we plan holidays and DIY and grocery shopping and menus together. I'm pleased some of our friends and family came to celebrate our relationship and offer support for our commitment. I'm ambivalent about the legal and social status the legal ceremony gave our relationship. It was originally because of child guardianship laws - only a man (not necessarily the father) married to a woman at the time of birth got automatic next of kin type rights. That law changed I think while I was pregnant, so I felt dreadful. Then civil partnerships showed up and I felt a bit better. It's complicated.
