A spring quartet


My sweet family.

I came home to throw the bacon on after work,

feed the hungry masses

and then we dashed off to the spring concert.

When did school concerts start?

I feel like my children are ageing before my eyes.

So excited to dress up as a blue fish, singing in a group of other children who were equally excited.

The concert lasted an hour, during which time we heard fish jokes and songs, and watched as excited children strutted their stuff in front of an adoring audience.

And at the end of the night, I took my little blue fishy home.

While they may not be movie stars,

or under the sea,

my little tadpoles are growing up before my eyes,

and all I can see are stars
