Django is seven.  What a lovable, funny, long, skinny, crazy thing he is!!!
Happy Birthday.

He is just a bit too cute here!!!

Our  favourite song this week is...

Dangerous things you should let your kids do

 

 

 

 

 

 

Number One is play with fire.  I am glad to hear I am doing something right!

A beautiful Day

What a glorious crystal clear morning.   I think we have turned the winter corner - I can feel spring on the way!    Sun is returning on my breakfast couch.   I love a cup of tea here in the early morning sun.

 I do love the morning....especially on a blue sky day with nothing set to do, the whole day stretching ahead to fill as it happens to get filled....

 

Two poppies are out.

The cabbages are ready to pick - that is one thing I will do today - make some coleslaw.

The rhubarb is thriving - I will also make some stewed apple and rhubarb today , so good on granola for breaky!
 (I have also been making apple and rhubarb crumble - yum!).

 

And Another one!

Sunny makes Sun Bread

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I haven't been doing much of this blogging lark this year - i kind of lost interest, but I am feeling a resurgence.  I do like looking back over it - it is a good reminder of life lived.  Sometimes it feels like I've done nothing different or interesting to write about, but actually it is all these little everyday simple  moments that make  life what it is.  Nothing amazing but important nonetheless.  These days at home with Sunny (and the boys) are not infinite and I would like to remember how we spent them when I am old!

Anyway I was looking through the photos and found these cute ones of Sunny and thought I'd put them up.  We made Sun Bread.  It is from a very cute book -
Sun Bread  by Elisa Kleven.

I just read a very good thing (i don't know what to call it - opinion piece perhaps?)   The intellectual benefits of a real old fashioned summer...

(Even though it is the middle of winter here!!)
That is all for now, time to get out in the garden!

Alive and well
