Parental Watchings.

So, Small and I went to the 1950's.... cos she needed to meet her new Mummy and Daddy!!

Small was soooooo well behaved the first night... it was like an alien had invaded, she was all quiet and watchy. Obviously as she got to know them better she got more like herself, but she did do what I asked her too, which was "break them gently baby" :-)

Just being on the island makes me feel whole, and having Small there just made it more so. What hurt my heart more than I can possibly explain was the way they just 'got' her. Lovely Husband and Oldest Friend showing her things on the beach, just one of them and her. Bending over or squatting down to explain things. Really talking to her. Listening to her. Looking at her. Loving her.
I dont know which of them it was worst with. When He collected shells with her and I was watching or when The Two Girls walked on water to go further out to sea. I did, on both occasions have to blink hard and look away for a second.
