True Blue Bull

Benjamin is a Blue Bull Supporter. Whether he likes it or not. You know the way children always complain about their parents’ expectations and the pressure they feel to fulfill their dad or mom’s dream? Well, being a Blue Bull Supporter is just one of those things – he has no choice in the matter and does not seem to mind wearing THE JERSEY too much!!! Roelf claims that the Bulls win if Benjamin is awake and watching when they are playing and almost definitely lose if he is asleep.

You must have come across the famous quote by the author of Peter Pan: “When the first baby laughed for the first time, it broke into a thousand pieces and that was the beginning of the fairies”. When Benjamin laughs it is a bit of magic. It makes you believe in all the beauty of fairies, unicorns and moonlit evenings. Even at 10 weeks, he has definite preferences about things which elicit that gurgling, bubbling, beautiful laughter. This photo was taken with his favourite favourite toy – a little multi-coloured bug with a friendly face which normally hangs over the changing table where he spends many happy minutes chatting loudly to it. Magic.
