Claude was growing up so quickly. Soon, he would be a man, and do things like his father and leave her for school, and then for other worldly occupations, like marriage to another woman. Sooner yet Madame Monet would be occupied once again with the new, tiny wearer of the nightgown she was sewing. But for now, the mother and son could simply enjoy one another's presence in the garden.

Madame had sewn the blue dress Claude was wearing. Soon she would need to sew long pants for Claude, rather than an infant's dress.

Claude put his toys to the side and took a white piece of fabric, and let the sun reflect different bits of light from above upon the cloth.

Soon, the sun grew too hot for Madame Monet. She knew she should hurry home and make sure that the chicken for Monsieur Monet was prepared perfectly, icy cold for a June Paris day, with figs and grapes of the same temperature, yet with a slightly warmer runny brie and cheese so it would not chill her husband's stomach too much for the rest of the day at the office. Then she would have to supervise the roasting of the duck for the evening meal. She should buy some pears at the market for dessert, too. She had much to do, she realized, and could not while the rest of the day in silence at the park. She had months still before the little nightgown had to be completed.
