My son came into the room the other day and announced he had a deep philosophy.
Cue throat clearing and dramatic pause…
“The darkest nights have the brightest stars.”
Riiiight.
That might have been profound if it hadn’t come directly from Bumblebee, the Transformers movie, which we’d watched the previous night.
Still if that was his takeaway, perhaps tv ain’t all bad.
It has definitely felt appropriate as we’re starting to see signs of spring, with daffodils and blossoms starting to appear. Added to that, the kids are going back to school on Monday…
While my daughter is a little bit reluctant (she’s worried the snacks won’t be as available and there won’t be as many breaks?!), I have to admit I’ll be very pleased to drop them off at the school gate.
The stars are aligning…!
