1. Mostly my cousin's new baby just wants to feed -- but I do get to hold her, and stare into her dark blue eyes for a moment. Then she goes back to rooting across my chest and cardigan,
2. With a handful of sunscreen, I chase a mischievous three-year-old down the garden. I'm glad it's not just my children who were very, very tinksy.
3. I have an idea that if I'm quick-smart making my connection, I won't have to wait half an hour -- and sure enough there is a train to Tonbridge waiting all the way down the platform. I have to run, pulling off my mask as I go but I just make it to a seat in the first carriage and replace my mask feeling very, very pleased with myself.
