Thomas has just returned from a Time Travel Scouting Trip and gives his wife a big kiss.
Bea, Daisy, and Gemma start singing...

K I S S I N G
First comes love
Then comes marriage
Then comes Merry Babies in a baby carriage.
Thomas asks his three little singers to gather round for a history lesson.
Thomas explains on this day, July 16th, in the year 1439, kissing was banned in England. It was believed germs were passed by kissing and because of all the plagues, kissing was strictly forbidden.
Daisy hopes the ban has been lifted because she watched the British Royal Wedding and remembers Prince William kissing his wife, Kate, TWO times!
Times have indeed changed.
What a sweet post, containing all the ingredients for happiness, family, love, sharing and a little bit of history as well.
