As I pull myself up to my favourite spot in the tree in my backyard, a cicada buzzes right in my face. Terrified, I almost fall off but I catch myself just in time.

A startled sparrow zips past my head.

My Mum's cooking smells waft up to my nose mmmmmmm.

A sparrow chirps a merry tune, filling my heart with joy.

I can hear Kai snoring from here. Maybe she’s dreaming about eating a bone.

Tyler and Harper's latest sibling squabble rings in my ears.

This is a good day in my household
