Spring is here!

I am a winter girl as opposed to a summer one. I would rather be cold than hot because you can always put more clothes on but you can only take so many off. That said, in truth I would like to be neither hot nor cold, I like being just right. I noticed last week that it is no longer dark when I get up at 6.15 and I like that very much. We don't need the heater on at all times and I like that too. My favourite indicator of Spring's arrival however, is small, pink and floaty. I wish they lasted much longer. They remind me of Japan, ahhh Sakura....


Last night at dinner Bethany cried out that her finger hurt. This happens regularly as things that go into her mouth tend to get bitten. I have learnt that sympathy is required in this situation so I asked which finger was hurt. Then I had to ask her if I could take a photo of her showing me which finger and she really appreciated the fuss I was making, though she didn't consider it a laughing matter.
