It’s astounding how many people go round calling children by ‘she’ when the child’s a boy even once they’re at toddler age. I can understand it more when they’re babies in unisex wear, and to a certain extent even if…

Of course, Tuesdays come round again and I’ve not thought at all about what N’s dressed in in preparation of linking up to Trendy Tuesday. I suppose it shows his usually messy/jumbled put together style. It does help that most…
