Brotherly love

I can only guess, dream, of what words were spoken between you. Perhaps it was just an expression on Reuben's face, hidden from my view, that caused a moment of pure joy for you Callum, radiated your face, lit up like the late afternoon sun. Or perhaps there were no words or expressions at all; it was just the recognition on Reuben's face of the love he feels for you, the knowing in his eyes that you're up to your antics again and I will soon be calling "Caaa-l-uuum" as you skip and jump away from me, over the open fields and into the undergrowth, laughing at your own misdemeanors all the way, loving the freedom life gives you with your little legs.

Cuddled into me this morning after your shower and suddenly asleep, hair still smelling sweetly of peppermint and now fast asleep on me again, the sound of five stories in your head at the end of a lovely day.

What will tomorrow bring?
