Childcare, cuddle break and a good day.

1. Nick is at home sick today, so he plays with Alec while I work. I'm re-arranging a sentence for the third time when Alec comes round the kitchen table. I shove the chair back so he can't reach the computer and take him on to my knee for a cuddle and some milk.


2. While Alec is at nursery, I take a quick cuddle break with Nick.

3. I come to the end of the day, and I feel as if somehow I have been a good mother, a good wife and a good writer.

I had a post today on Fiona Robyn's River of Stones -- What My Baby Told Me About Time.
