Catherine Lacey: BoyStory

"It's not who we are underneath
But what we DO that defiines us"

One little boy is rather happy and unable to contain his excitement.

Reuben started Spanish class today at school. In other news there, the report on Reuben from Kristina who aided him today: "He might be coming on a bit strong but she's definitely reciprocating. They held hands from the playground to the class"...

After a morning meeting with the principle at Reuben's school and some action plans for me (including capturing all 126 pupils and their families in the next few weeks), I came home, worked a little, visited my neighbor to honour her departed mother, brought the boys along, had a few minutes to capture a few shots of Callum, returned to my neighbour and good friend Judy's house for the Shivah trying to learn a little of the custom beforehand. Even under the circumstances, it is always such a warm and welcoming environment being with them and sharing their customs.
