It’s the beginning of another month! No April Fool’s tricks here, except if you came looking for an accomplished First on the First challenge – no such luck!

While Theo and his siblings continue to be completely enamoured with each other, I’m definitely seeing the not-too-distant future where the little guy becomes a source of frustration to his brother and sister.
