In a bun dance

If I'm going to get something, I usually get it in spades - luck (both kinds), children, clutter, dirty laundry, bright ideas, daft ideas...

100/365 I am the king

April 10, 2013 By Ellen

This is Boy Three in his regalia. Apparently, he’s the king, I’m the queen, the Panther is the knight and his brothers are the princes (although after consideration Boy One became the palace baker. We don’t have a princess and we really, really need a princess.

A little while later, the king would only eat his toast when presented with due ceremony. When I asked if he wanted rectangles or triangles (we are a geometrically correct household), he stood in the kitchen mute, his lips pressed together so tightly they were white and shook his head. Eventually, I fathomed that I had to say: “Oh King, how should I cut your toast today?”

    Yes, but you'll notice it was the queen who was buttering toast – albeit in a regal manner.
