On the 7th day, the Blog was started...

I started watching "Finding Neverland" this evening (The story of Peter Pan) and suddenly realised how quickly time goes by, and how suddenly childhood is forgotten. It reminded me of a favourite saying, "You're never too old to have a happy childhood." So this is my little contribution to keeping and storing those memories, to blowing fairydust on whomever passes through these pages every so often; and if you'll indulge me, I may even rant and rave every now and then. The Maiden may pop in on the odd occassion, just to ensure i'm not starting any wars or ending any ceasefires in her absence. In 6 years she's done a remarkable job of doing just that, so who am I to stop her now? So who is The Butterfly, you ask? Well, we wait with baited breath for her arrival :) The Maidens due, The Merchants excited and anxious, and right now The Butterfly's kicking, which is my cue to offer another back-rub :) Enjoy, and keep those posts and comments coming.

Oh god, who showed this man how to blog! Mr. Merchant, were emails and phone calls not enough for you to chew our brains... that we now have to endure you on the net too. hahaha, I love the merchant's sitting on a pot of gold look in the picture, although the maiden looks like she must be ruling over him with an iron glove, he looks too damn well fed to mind.
