At the moment, I'm sitting out by the sandpile at my folks' place where Anthony and his cousin Josh like to play, with my laptop working on some new Lightroom tools while the kids play. How silly of me not to have brought my camera, because there are so many adorable scenes as the kids – 2 years old and five years old – play together.

Just now, Josh was holding a big plastic baseball bat taller than he was, running in circles after Anthony, who carried a big red ball. It started as Anthony trying to get away from Josh so that Anthony could play with the ball by himself, but it became a silly game of chase, with huge giggles and laughs all around.

Wish I hadn't left the camera inside...
