Benjamin, who as far as I recall, is about 5-and-a-half years of age and with the assistance and supervision of his grandmother “Gem” follows various WP blogs including mine. He is very aware of who Greta Thunberg is and what she stands for. “Gem” emailed me yesterday about an excellent blog-post she and Benjamin had read together and…
“Benjamin was adamant that you know this, and as he is standing at my elbow, it must be done as directed! Thank-you x 2!!”
Thank YOU Benjamin 🙂
I’ve decided to share the link with you all:

Namaste, Ms. Liz! It’s me BENJAMIN! Big peoples don’t always listen to little peoples like me. You did and I am so proud of you for telling other peoples too. You get two thumbs up and ten gold stars. And a neckbuster hug and kisses too. Greta’s work is so important. Peoples have to listen and do what she tells them ‘fore it’s too late. The planet needs help right now. That’s what Greta says! Thank you!

Ms. Liz, I am as close to speechless as I ever get! I would never have expected a response to our email such as yours. Believe me when I tell you that Benjamin will be over the moon when I show this post to him in the morning. Saying thank-you seems inadequate, but it is sincere. Thank-YOU x 2!!
