I can explain
Well, Dad, in case you’ve been wondering why I’ve been blogging all day, instead of being out making a living… eldest is ill. So instead of sitting by her bed, wiping the delicate droplets of perspiration off her little forehead with a damp cloth (she’s only 11, she doesn’t sweat, yet), soothing her with soft words of comfort … I’m on my computer and she’s on hers. Bringing up kids is much easier than it used to be in your day.
