We are at the swimming pool today, Deb, me and our grandson.
Grandson and I are playing in the water, after his swimming lesson. Grandson is sitting on a low wall at the edge of the pool. A crocodile is snapping at his feet... Yes, the crocodile is me.
Suddenly grandson lifts his feet too far -- and tumbles backwards, off the wall !
I look over the wall... Grandson has fallen perhaps half a metre. Into a garden bed. He is lying on his back with a fern leaf across his face. He pushes the leaf aside.
And says, I'm all right. I'm all right.
I lift him out of the garden. We carry on playing.
An excellent attitude to life and its ups and downs, I think.
