I do suffer from Proud Mother Syndrome, but I do it in silence.

I know Nora is clever… so I’m told.

I know Nora has a character that makes everyone smile… so I’m told.

I know that Nora has the ability to light up the day by just being herself… so I’m told.

Yesterday, when Jules sent her to Nursery, Kasha said to Nora ‘Come on Nora, it’s quiet and boring without you’ and my heart just swelled with pride when Jules told me the story… because it is true. It can be quiet and boring without her around.

And when she is ill… everyone notices. Like yesterday, though she was happy playing, she was also quiet… and everyone worries about her.

I find the way she touches everyone’s lives is pretty amazing… and this is the ‘Proud Mother Syndrome’ speaking… she is an amazing child.
