While my father was reading to the girls last week, I sneakily nipped into the utility room, fired up the mobile phone and took a video. I'm not usually very good at being on the spot with technology to capture the moment when it presents itself. But I'm glad I managed to catch this for posterity.
I love hearing my father read stories, and it's adorable to see the girls enjoying it too. Funnily enough, I don't 'hear' his accent when I'm speaking to him, but I notice it on a recording. Don't know why that is.
( Memo to self: Pipe down when recording, ones voice is awfully loud and annoying)

ReplyDeleteAbsolutely wonderful! You have captured a beautiful moment. The little ones are gorgeous and I love your father's accent. It transports me to other times and other places. Thank you and God bless you, the little ones and Grandad too.
Awwww... lovely! I especially liked M-A grabbing your dad's cheek and H's coy glances at the phone -- as well as your dad's wonderful voice of course! -- Elizabeth the Unblogger

ReplyDeleteWe had the volume turned right up so we got a bit of a blast when your voice came on!
