This afternoon I finished up my day of work and walked to the pre-school & then the big school to collect both my girls and bring them home. They both looked exhausted. We walked home with the sun blaring down on us. They dragged their feet. We dragged our bags. Anouk complained that the 15 minute walk was “taking hours!”. “Are we there yet?”…. “Oh I’m so tired”…. “I’m so hungry”… “What can we have for afternoon tea?”
Then… the door opened, shoes were kicked off, bags were drop down, bowls of mango & ice-cream were consumed, clothes were stripped off & left in a trail through out the house, swimmers were put on & just like magic, the garden hose brought them back to life.
