Lovember: Charlie

He's pure boy... 55% testosterone, 55% heart. They both add up to more than he can contain. He can be intransigent, bullish and utterly impossible to be with sometimes - but behind the temper hides a vulnerability which brings out the maternal tigress in me.

He's part me, part Aunty Mim, part Layla and part my dad: pure Cook to Teddy's pure Finlow - but most of all he's his own Charlie and I pray he never ever loses that.
