‘Take my hand, mum’—and I did. I was you in that moment of reading, with my own son, ten years from now. Tears from the exquisite emotions you’ve gifted us here; so grateful.

Loveliness, ribbons, and magpie moments! ❤️

Snow days with the children are great. A while back, when my wife was due to birth one of the kids, we were due snow. To be fair, we absolutely didn't want snow to fall on *that* occasion...All was well! 😅

So vividly written, beautiful piece. My children have grown up so fast it takes my breath away. And I, like you, wish I could wrap those precious days in tin foil. Thanks for this.
