Seth

Seth woke up after his afternoon nap. He stayed in a bit of a dwam as I helped him on with his shoes, held his hand downstairs and lifted him over the wall into the park to his Dad.
He sat in a canvas chair for a good half an hour, solemnly sucking his dummy-tit and studiously ignoring the 3 strange new adults lounging on the grass, while he contemplated the vista of the sky and the gorse on Whinny Hill.
After a while, he whispered to his Dad, and pointed up. He announced his first word to the company at large: "Moon!", he said.
