Baby Lily

"We talked about divorce last week."

He husband had an insecure childhood as the only child of a former hippy couple. He had dropped out of school, had had alcohol and drug problems, had divorced twice. THen he started rebuilding his life. He was in the late 30s and just about finishing his phD in counselling when they met. Debby was his boss and 13 years senior.

Debby divorced twice before and had teenage children.
After long courtship, they got married when Debby was 40.
They didn't plan to have a child not because of her age but mainly because of his insecurity to become a father.

Eventually, he got a position in university and they bought a huge old house in a small town.
They have been renovating the house for ten years. The house was beautifully refurbished to its original state.

Then one day, her husband said, " I think I am ready to be a father. I would like to adopt a baby girl."


She wasn't sure if she has enough energy to work and raise a baby in her 50s. --Her dranddaughter was 6 at that time. Her son is a drup addict and loser... She had always thought her husband had given up the idea of fatherhood long time ago.--
She couldn't answer "yes" instead she offered him a divorce.
That os why she accompanied his trip to Sapporo. They would talk it over while away from home...

A few months later they decided to adopt ababy and started searching for a suitable agency. One year and a half later after she offered a divorce they were ready to meet their future child.

I knew the determination of her husband whe he told Debby.
One year and a half ago, he already had a name for the future baby.
When I took them to Yurigahara Park he was happy to know that Lily- the name he had in mind was Yuri in Japanese.
