Bluebells 2019

Every year since she was 18 months old I’ve taken her to the bluebells. The very first year they were up to her waist.... now, she towers above them. This year’s are particularly stunning. The fragrance was beautiful. The sunshine beamed in through the trees. It was glorious.

She’s a bit stressed about back to school which I think contributed to a touch of difficulty keeping her cool today. But it’s been so fabulous having really quiet time to ourselves with a couple of gentle walks, picnics and hours of blissful garden time. It made seriously question, in the wee small hours of the last day or two, whether sending her back to school is the right plan. We will be fine when we get back to it....
