Thank you

'Thank you, Mummy,' he says, heading down the stairs.

'For what, darling?'

'For myself.'

Busy garden days

Spring!

When what falls from the sky is dry and pink and much more fun than the cold wet stuff.

Where did you come from?

So, we ask small boy, where did you come from?

'Italian' he answers (he's half-Italian)

But before that?

'99p shop' (his favourite shop - all those cars!)

Before the 99p shop...

'Home'

And before you were here?

'Sleeping'

Indeed.
