Almost every day, as John runs full-tilt at life, he's knocked and scarred by the world he so fearlessly explores.
And almost every day, as I dry his tears and hold him close and feel my gut wrench with worry, I wonder whether his falls hurt my heart as much as they hurt my brave little boy.
As a Mum three times over I can't helping thinking our hearts hurt more - the scrapes and those forlorn blue eyes brought back that "tummy turning over" feeling for me too!
