One of the magical things about life that I so much appreciate are the tender moments when the Bunster lies next to me in bed, before he goes to sleep, and is in a chatty mood. What comes out of his mouth is often so colourful and sometimes it is quite emotional.

Earlier this week I was putting our little man to sleep, and I was in the bed with him, and he was cuddled up close to me. And he suddenly pipes up with “Daddy, are you going to die?” I was silent for a bit and then gently explained to the Bun man that everyone dies at some point. I told him not to worry. I said I will not die anytime soon. He then says to me “If you die I will cry forever.” I did shed a few tears after that.
