― Elly Griffiths, The Janus Stone

Don’t walk behind me… I may not lead
Walk beside me… just be my friend”

“One thing you didn’t realize until you were a grandparent was that little children were a tiny glimpse of magic in a dreadfully difficult world. They had to be disciplined, sure, but they also had to be enjoyed. Parents worked so hard these days that often they didn’t make time to enjoy them, but grandparents knew better. The days were long and years were short, that was what everyone said these days.”
― Sally Hepworth, The Family Next Door
