Thank You, Adriana!

Ponsa ponsa time, in a far away land, lived a little girl called Veronica.

Veronica attended a school called St Ann's Academy. Her mother had a little tea shop and bakery for a couple of years, so Veronica went to the school farm after three o'clock. The farmer's wife was maybe 10 years older than Veronica, and while Veronica was spending time with her, she had a baby, She and her husband called the baby Patrick.

This was the very first baby Veronica was encouraged to hold and cuddle. Veronica was allowed to help care for Patrick, and she liked to think that she was some help to the new mom. Probably not, as Audrey was a very efficient mother, but the experience meant the world to Veronica, the lonely only child whose parents were old enough to be her grandparents.

Today, Veronica found out that Audrey, whose name is now Adriana, took a picture of her with Patrick.

Veronica feels as if a little lost piece of her childhood has been found.
