Hi Finchy.
I know I've said this before, but I don't know how you do it - you always write things that relate to where I am. I read with hand to mouth, nodding with comprehension.
Selfish of me to see it all through my own eyes when it's so obviously your personal experience and emotion. Maybe it's a mom thing, or a poet thing, or a too-damn-many-kids-to-have-self thing... I dunno. Anyway.
I love you.
