1. From the bedroom, I can hear Lily’s excitement: her pop-pops has come to see her! Quick, everyone grab a shoe!
2. Being silly in the woods. Admittedly we do this quite a lot.
2b. “You can have one,” the man with three springers says as the dogs run around us and an slightly overwhelmed Lily. My “ok!” is a little too eager.
