An obedient trio sitting on the bed, the children are waiting for their mother.

At least a mile away, another poverty stricken family like theirs tries to provide some kind of a lifestyle out of this brutal Australian bush. Their mother has trekked over there hoping to swap some fresh vegetables for milk.

Their eldest sister is with their mother. The light might well fade before they get back; dingos howling in the dark scares everyone. Especially the chickens.

Being widowed by typhoid in less than four months after migrating from England, their mother was a formidable woman. Indominable. Resilient.
