A bright sunshiney day, but with a cold, cold wind.
Today in Carmine, something is missing.
No: "Mama, I'm not getting up!"
No: "Mama, I've lost my slippers!"
No: "Mama, the dog won't give me my teddy!"
No: "Ouch you're pulling my hair out!"
No: "AJ pushed me!"
No: "B-B bit me!"
No: "I don't want milk - toast - yogurt - apple - I'm not eating whatever it is you've hauled up the hill and worked for an hour to produce..."
No: "Not homework, again!"
No: "Mama, you're a piggy!"
No: "I want to watch Lazytown, but she wants Hector's House!"
No: "Mama, have you hidden the remote control?"
No: "I don't want to go to bed!"
No: "I've cleaned my teeth, honest!"
No morning chaos. No post-school tantrums. No lies, white or black. No amateur deceptions. No chocolate-biscuit thievery. No bribing them up the hill. No spats. No squabbles. No scraps.
No stories, no secrets, no cuddles, no kisses, no impossible tales, no little hands in mine, no improving our reading, no ABC, no sleepy warmth, no naughty laughs, no made-up songs, no non-rhyming rhymes, no sudden smiles. No "Mama, you're beautiful". No "Mama, you're the best". No "Mama, I love you".
I do miss them when they're away.
