A rare treat, to be able to post a picture of my first born and with him actually looking at the camera and smiling, well almost!

This photo is taken at Bibury – upon my first time of visiting this pretty village. I was crouching on steps by the water one side of the foot bridge, holding my camera out over the water and pointing back towards the road bridge. A bit precarious with my 6 month bump, but I like […]

The beautiful roots of a massive tree, where fairies come to play.

This morning Alexei painted some boiled eggs, and himself, in preparation for an easter egg roll at the pre school picnic. His painting style is quite haphazard, but effective nonetheless! Following the picnic,  he portrayed a brilliant worm in the nursery play; now he is having some well earned downtime after such a busy day.

It was not a day for taking photos as I was busy making cakes, tea, supervising present opening etc, plus my memory card was already full from the […]
