Sunday morning: true to its name sun streams through the window, leaf shadows cast on the cream blinds. Amy and Gabes, since returning from Devon three weeks ago have been television free and the space that has created has been wonderful, it’s as though they didn’t have any space, mental or emotional, to learn how to interact. Now they do and although it’s sometimes harder work, the absence of noise and their blank, passive faces seated on the sofa watching endless children’s programming is wonderful. I type this one handed because Gabriel is snuggled into me, next moment he’s gone and Amy is reading a book to him.
