If not now, when?

I have a wonderful husband, a beautiful fur baby and had a ‘will push pregnancy out’ mentality, to ‘give me a few more years’. But 2020 arrived and it changed a lot for me and our family. And the words ‘if not now, when’ hit me, hard. What was I waiting for? I took change as a sign to focus on adding to our family. And what do you know? A little baby girl arrived in my belly. I call her my beacon of light, soon after, my parents (in England) were fighting through covid, and hubby (in Australia) had a stint in hospital, all the while this ray of light beamed out and allowed us to focus on something bigger than ourselves. She arrived in my belly exactly when she was meant to. I feel like we have been through so much already and she has no idea of the impact she has had, even before she has arrived earth side.
