Miss Higgins - records researcher par excellence
Miss Higgins is diligent in searching out old medical records from the archives. Also she is excellent at keeping unruly doctors from meddling in her carefully sourced files (13.1)

this miss higgins story reminds me of a moment a season or two ago, there’s this young teenage couple who want to keep their baby but the mother/grandmother arranges for an adoption
and there’s this horrible moment where they’re taking the baby away from these screaming crying sixteen year old kids
and miss higgins stops the adoption worker to carefully snip off the baby’s name bracelet to give back to the parents so they will always keep a piece of their baby with the name they chose for him and i just
can’t stop thinking about young millicent higgins and the name she chose for her son and the way she kept it close to her heart all these years because his name was the only part of him she was allowed to keep

one of the reasons why I love Call the Midwife is that the show makes me feel excited about growing older.
Of course, I’m making an effort to let present-me be content and thriving. But in seeing women older than me being happy, safe, filled with purpose, part of a tightly-knit community and guiding their younger peers, then I can imagine myself in their shoes.
I see Shelagh watching her oldest child grow into a young adult and I’m excited to be a mother like her soon - with a kid out there in the world, finding her path.
I see Sister Hilda taking a long, hard look at the world and deciding that she wants to be better equipped for helping in more capacities and I’m looking up possibilities to learn and take better care of other people and myself.
I see Millicent Higgins being unapologetically herself and taking pride in her achievements, relishing in the things that bring her delight and using her unique power of getting things done to sort through any kind of mess, and I’m laughing at myself now for being afraid of paperwork - maybe I can be braver in the future.
I see Violet Buckle taking charge of everything and making sure that she uses her position to make important changes, I see her opening her door and her heart for so many people, and I’m hoping that life will bring me second chances and maybe even the opportunity to raise a slightly different kind of family - in a sewing shop, patched together with the yarn of love.
I see Phyllis Crane being the pinnacle of her profession, supporting herself all the way from the fringes of society into the heart of a community that cannot do without her anymore. Leading by example and never running out of true and kind words, her common sense is the most versatile tool I’ve ever seen anybody use and I want that groundedness for myself - today and especially in the future.
I see Sister Julienne accepting the burden of leadership, pouring endless bounds of faith onto every kind of problem and admitting freely when she has been wrong, or uninformed. Her ability to calm storms is legendary and as in practice makes perfect she must be the most centered person to ever walk the earth. I’m jealous.
I see Sister Evangelina speaking truth to everyone and being proud of her work, a woman unafraid and resourceful like few others. The show has hardly scratched the surface on what the real Sister Evangelina has seen and done in her life and part of me wants to be as unafraid, too. But I’ll pass on the parachute jump behind enemy lines, thank you very much.
I see Sister Monica Joan, after a long and extensive work-life amidst her sisters, with an endless variety of baked goods, watching Doctor Who, playing with children, calling a sizeable library her own, and when I’m at her age I hope I’ll to remember to say “Child, I have seen everything.”

Loved the episode tonight.
Nearly cried at Miss Higgins and her son hugging, just about kept it together.
I know there are different opinions on May's bio mum but I'm glad that after they spoke and she heard how loved and confident May sounded she did what was best for her daughter and I have in my head that they do keep in touch with letters etc. as she grows up but we probably won't see that in the show.
Turnadette supporting each other. Patrick being realistic that May wasn't theirs yet, their hand holding during the call and the half hug at the end.
Sister Julienne was fantastic. Immediately saving Trixie from the fire and helping Joyce with her deadbeat ex-husband.
Joyce's teeth suck noise(can't find the correct word) is great and the ladies cheering her on.🥰
Also Reggie with his speech at the end and the call back to how his storyline started.
Tim the sassy receptionist.🤭
Also love Sister Julienne winning mum of the year. Does that mean she gets the washing machine? Does Nonnatus have one or do they use the laundrette?

@shelaghdette and I were talking about Miss Higgins and how we can’t believe anyone actually likes her. I personally don’t like her because she’s annoying, overbearing, and needlessly rude to Shelagh. Let me know if you like her or not, and why.

Miss Higgins and the Tortoise
Did Patrick ask Timothy to take the tortoise to Miss Higgins because he'd anticipated her initial reaction?

The TB family bring up long buried memories for Nancy. She talks to Phyllis about her mother. Phyllis knows this is not a one woman job and needs a tenacious researcher. Nancy is initially cross that Phyllis has involved Miss Higgins but realises that if there is information to be found Miss Higgins will unearth it. With the knowledge that information can be painful Miss Higgins shows her compassionate side and offers to be Nancy's chauffeur and note taker. Nancy's hug to Phyllis is both a thank you and a comfort. (13.4)

"Her entire life appears to be an abject failure of the thing that matters most."
"Love?"
"No, administration."
Miss Higgins is a woman after my own heart.
