The day my sister was born
I was just over 3 years old, it was 1956 and I now know it was Easter Monday. I was holding hands with my mothers friend and in my other hand I had a silver straw ball with coloured threads in it, it was on elastic and I was bouncing it. We were walking across a field , an Easter fair was on. I saw my father walking towards me and he bent down to me and told me I had a baby sister.
