My young tour guide


I spent part of the morning following my young friend Eden (2 yrs 2 months) as he gave me a guided tour of Massey University. His Mommy was attending a lecture. We wandered along the pathways, around the gardens, beside the roads. He wanted to touch every light along the path, and he told me the words for everything he saw: "Black bird!" . It was graduation day, and he particularly enjoyed watching the groups of young people in their long black gowns "Big people!" He had to climb the steps behind the Massey U. sign, even though the families were taking photos there. I wonder how many graduation photos were taken that will prove to have a small blonde head visible in the background.
