A prince of my own.

So with all the hype & excitement of the Royal birth (who doesn't love the news of a new baby) I was watching a video of Kate and wills as the came out of the hospital and I was thinking, firstly, she may be the Princess of Cambridge but she is still a woman and would have many of the same feelings, fears and experiences as the rest of us. She still gives birth the same way, she would still feel pain, excitement and anticipation, after all she can’t magic the baby out. lol  Sure her care would have been 100 times what we could expect, but there must be so much she's feeling as a new mum that is just like the rest of us 'non Royals' every day people.

Secondly I thought WOW the pressure on her now to bring up the future king must be huge, who'd want that as a new parent, its hard enough being a first time Mum let alone marry into the Royal family and become a mother to a future King.

Anyway then I got to thinking she has the future King of England to bring up, he'll still be her baby boy, but the pressure - I wonder what that would be like on her... my thoughts then went to my little man and all those other little ones coming into the world and I realised, we all have future kings and queens to bring up really.. (Not the ones who will rule over a country or a Nation) but our little ones are our own type of Royalty; they are the leaders of tomorrow.. They are our future Engineers, Musicians, Doctors, Builders, CEO's, Farmers, Electricians etc.... Leaders of all kinds and just to bring up a good kid... A child who is happy and healthy, who is kind, caring and thoughtful who loves and values life, we ALL have that pressure and responsibility ... after all children are a reflection of their parents in some degree (if not more) aren’t they?

So Enjoy your little ones do what you can now with them and for them, for tomorrow they take off into the big wide world and make their mark...
