Lewis was out when I got home tonight, he's been to a dog training session with Janis (and Rose the sheepdog), so whilst I was eating supper I had a chance to reflect upon the process of growing up and growing away.
They travelled over to Brockenhurst, and I could imagine them sitting in the car jabbering away together about the stars in the sky, as they crossed the forest. Sure enough when they arrived home the first think they did was look for the partial eclipse which Lewis was confident would be occuring tonight.
It's not easy to let go, and I guess there will always a bit of you that wants to take care, but boy is it nice to watch that spirit of independence take root.
