Pale blue ribbons

"Standing on tiptoe by my baby brother's cot, seeing the texture of the wickerwork and the floppy pale blue satin ribbons at the corner. (I love textures). Then crawling over my mother's bed to reach the grapes. I don't remember the baby at all! (no photo of occasion - and incidentally, I also know if memories are true if I can remember the colour of clothes in black and white photographs)."
