The Weekend Picture



This is my nephew and niece in Galway, outside a house that my brother is building. Right before I took this shot my nephew looked at me and exclaimed, "I like you!", in his surprised little toddler voice, which filled my heart with joy. Because the last thing he'd said about me was "I don't want Daddy's sister to huggle me!". I think he is warming to me.

  1. Oh, now that is a GORGEOUS picture! Beautiful, sweet, and atmospheric in good ole monochrome!

    Brought back memories of my two boys when they were young. One of those used the term 'huggle' too!

  3. Just coming in to congratulate you on your Guardian appearance too - one step closer to getting 'blonk' into the OED, I'd have thought!

  9. My nephew was very ignorant of me too so last Christmas I ignored him right back and devoted my attention to his older sisters. He soon realised what he was missing.

    Congratumalations on The Guardian mention.
