Portrait of the Author as a Mother.

Theo: “Mama, I am 3. How old are you?”

Alice: “Yes; you are, and Mae-Mae is 2. How old do you think I am?”

Theo: “I don’t know…”

Alice: “Ever tactful, darling. Have a guess. Do you think I am old or young?”

Theo: “Let me check…”

(Results are in: I am ‘old-young’. Paring down my skin-care routine to moisturising, fretting and 1000 kisses a day seems to be paying dividends)
