I felt a warmth spread through me as I watched my daughter play in the garden. This small, intimate gathering was exactly what I’d dreamed of. We'd had a wonderful afternoon and the thought of my friend, Ben, hosting a massive pool party was a non-issue. I was present.

The gentle laughter, the bright colours of the balloons, everything was perfect. I felt completely content as I watched her chase after the bubbles in the air. Time seemed to slow down.
