Bath Time

Hashiguchi Goyô.
Woman After Bath, 1920.


After enjoying another torturous session at the gym last night, I went home to two little girls practically jumping out of their skin with excitement.

"LADYCRACKER! CLOSE YOUR EYES! GO IN THE BATHROOM!".

So I went into the bathroom and was presented with candlelight and a welcoming bath, beside which two little chairs were placed so my step daughters could regale me with tales of their day. Little 4 even got out the scrubbing brush and gave my back a once over.

While I have always enjoyed my solitude in the bathroom, I reckon that last night's was about the best I have ever had. At the risk of sounding even more sentimental than I already do... aren't they angels?
