Family

What are families for?
They are where you can grumble and swear, they are where you can scratch and sneeze, they are where you can unwind, rewind, relive, extol, express. Families are a bloody nuisance and an absolute necessity. Families are a blessing, though we may curse them. Families are to be at home in, to grow up and grow old in.

This is my sister Ros and her husband Robbie. I am happy to be here. Tomorrow I will see Nathan, my son, who has been in Nepal for three months. His plane should land in about 7 hours. I am excited.
