'It's my birthday in three days time' she said,
bouncing up and down excitedly with a wide tooth-gapped grin.
Her mother smiled benignly on.
A serene image of motherhood.
Her beautiful lilting French accent making my native English language sound melodic.
I must finish the hearts and wrap them for tomorrow -
for when you are 5 turning 6,
presents have to be unwrapped on your birthday.
