A Little Tub of Imagination.

It’s tough being four.

It’s even tougher being four when you have two older sisters, and a baby brother, and no one ever lets you play the things you want to play.

But sometimes it is good to be four.

It’s good to be four when your sisters have gone to school and your brother is having a nap and your Mum asks if you want to do something special.

It’s not so good to be four when your brother wakes up and wants to join in… but it’s nice to know that your little tub of imagination is tucked safely away, waiting for another moment when it’s good to be four.
