Here...

Yup, I'm back!!
While I've been gone life has carried on in the same way it does. We have grieved for the loss of our dad/father in law/granddad, He suffered terribly for the last 6 months and his passing was so very, very hard but such a blessing for him, a final relief from pain and free to be with his love Eunice again. We love you and miss you dad.

The seasons continue to change and birthdays have been celebrated, Christmas was good, we have played in the snow, read lots and lots of books but now we await Spring. We need that glimmer of warmth and light.

I don't know where to start, how can I catch up 3 months of our lives. I am probably just going to upload lots of random photo's and try and fill in the blanks. I was going to type a long emptying of my mind and heart post but Charlie is going through a phase of *needing* me to listen to him right now...I am really trying to be ever so patient and present but truth be known..I'm struggling.

Anyway, I have been nipping online now and again and reading my favourite blogs, thank you for being an inspiration and also for being so honest!! I intend to be here regularly from now on, I have missed this place :)

Back Again.

 Charlie has been performing lots of puppet shows for me, although he is still a little shy sometimes and actually told me that he gets stage fright, aww bless him :)

 we have a new very small but very crazy addition to our family...meet Tabatha Mactatt aka Tabby.

 Walking in woods, watching out for squirrels.

 Ben came home for a while from Vancouver. It was lovely to have all my kids together but alas he has gone back to carry on his life in Canada.

Don't children spot the tinniest things?
