Away for a week or two,
It’s not school holidays.
Teachers as parents, parents as teachers
Know too well what kids need
Or know nothing!!
A break from Penrith Infants pressure?
Hahaha!
To Camden Infants.
Diligent, well-behaved visitor.
Angels land at Camden Nana’s.
A new brother arrives in Penrith – Phil!
Note & Extra:
* I know I haven’t put anything in 365 Short Memories about the births of either Stephen or Peter. That’s because I can’t remember those events – but you never know, this little excavation exercise may come up with something before the year ends. Oh! I can’t really remember Phil being born either (sorry Phil) but I do clearly remember spending time at a school that was foreign to me.
* What I know now, though I may have thought – and acted – differently many times, is fortune smiled on me, on us. When I first heard this Elton John song in 1970 I was probably the demonic, impatient, wicked oldest brother but I, nevertheless, was moved by it and thought it told a story relevant to me.
And all you ever learned from them
Until you grew much older
Did not compare with when they said
This is your brand new brother.
