Ah children - a little like making a
cake: hard work to make, exciting to watch grow ,satisfying when they
develop as expected.
I was enjoying this analogy as I asked Sam how
the fluorescent sneakers I had tried on looked.
I love Sam no more so than today, when she
told me the fluorescent sneakers I tried on in the shop were
perhaps too bright for my age. My impulsive reaction was
to be immediately defiant, wanting the sneakers even
more. What didn't escape me was that the single-mindedness of
my adolescence was still alive and well, even though my combined years are enough for a
seniors card. The colour of age is not dark
but fluorescent!
A lovely contribution from Trish :)
