Fathers' Day

As I picked the Fathers' Day cards up off the floor once more - knocked over with all the toings and froings and comings and goings of the guys camped out in the kitchen (one new kitchen in a lifetime is too many!) - I had to giggle again at B's card. He bought a lovely card for his Dad and scribed some serious words. Do all thirteen year olds think like this? - ‘Thanks, Dad, for all the support you’ve given me with my running! You seem to get wiser every year.’ He meant it in a lovely way, we think! In reality, of course, as Dad pointed out, it is B’s listening skills which improve as time goes on.
