I would like to wish everyone a lovely New Year I know I cant wait.

looking at life ....and its good

Spent the day in the 2-3year olds nursery, I really enjoy the way they are starting to play together and love the way everything is special right down to the ant that crawls over their hand.

been busy doing some digging

 now I have to plant it all

planted so far

• cauliflower
• broccoli
• celeriac

Starting a new page with a new day

And what a lovely day it is, sun is shining birds are singing  I wish I could say all is right with the world.as this lovely prayer goes


God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference. Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.

--Reinhold Niebuhr

I must be bored

 or fed up with clearing up all the dog hairs

Sean is so patient with me what is a few dog hairs between friends.

Went fishing with Aled

I thought I would let the photos speak for themselves

Have a lovely weekend

One thing I would love to know which mushrooms are not the  poison sort

 love the light here early evening.

we have so many little streams here

 and lots of places to take this happy boy for a walk.

Sean got his walk it was just a little

later in the day.

Woke early this morning

and I think if Sean could talk he would say" lovely flowers,lovely sky ,how about taking me for a lovely walk"

Nature reserve part two

some more photos of our day out I did not see much of the water buffalo this time though.

 
on the floating bridge

Today the boys have once again started school after another school holiday ,so maybe life wont be so hectic for a while.then again I do enjoy it when they are home.
