When I heard Tristan upstairs ‘reading’ to Simon, I thought I’d creep upstairs with the camera and catch the moment. I should have known it wouldn’t last, but it was cute for the half a second or so before they started misbehaving.

Actually, it’s a good capture of life with the boys in a microcosm – adorable blending seamlessly with mischevious, until they get caught. The book they are ‘reading’ is, appropriately enough, Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed.
