Hot, again...

Luca had a playdate after school today, so I just picked Eben up. Although I certainly admit to a grandmotherly pang about being needed less, it's great to see L's friendships developing as he grows. Also good to have some time to chat with E on his own.
In a context where the news gets more dreadful every day, I find myself seeking out tiny gestures of kindness or imagination more and more. With this 'bike barn' at E and L's school, I love the way that they've taken the trouble to add a green roof, where plants are flourishing.
