Moments in Time

I love to write and plague my son with novels he never reads.

‘Write your story mum’ he says. ‘I reckon that would be interesting.’

I laugh. ‘I would need several volumes to write my life story. There are too many memories in my head.’

Later his request comes to me again but I think no, I could never write my story. I would not know where to begin.

But here I am, writing random memories that come to me at odd times. It’s not an auto biography. It’s not even a memoir. It’s just a random collection of moments in time and it’s for my children.
