Kingsley: First Party

Saturday 5th April 2014

Two days before young Kingsley turns four months of age, we are off to a party. And not just any party; it is to honour the birth of Kingsley’s little mate, Harrison.

Harrison Charles Tooby, son of our Dubai friends Kate and Graham Tooby, turns two months of age today, and for this his excellent parents are hosting a BBQ to which my son shall be dressed in his finest attire. This white onesie once belonged to Erroll, a long long time ago. And now, thirty five years later, its on my son’s tiny frame, ribbons and bows tied at the back, frills at the front.

The child is smiling now, however there are only a few years in which I can dress my son like this, as the little King that he is, before he runs for the hills…
