The Calm After a Storm

There was a horrendous storm here this afternoon and at one point I thought it was snowing but it was the blossom being blown all around the garden. But now it is all settled it is a very pretty sight. I had a thought that it is a bit of a metaphor for my good friend Jemma who gave birth to a beautiful baby girl last night. An experience that no doubt wasn't much fun but the end result is just perfect. I am so happy for her and James, welcome to the world Isabelle x
