    You’ve gotta love the spontaneity of a child.

    P.S. Thank you for the little ditty you left on my piece Is there anything? That was very sweet, and my favorite comment in a long time.

    They grow up to feel so embarrassed about moments like this. I love them as children.

    What a darling little image and wonderful words! We are so constrained by society, although, in some ways, it’s probably a good thing! Thanks for the smile! xx
