Poppy

A good day for gardening again. This poppy has appeared from nowhere. We used to have a lot, they came from my in-laws garden. After a gap, now they are back.
I have been thinking about my in-laws today as once again I am reading the letters that I sent to them from Kenya, 1972-1974. I would love to discuss the letters with them, and reminisce about the events mentioned but they are long gone. I have enjoyed reading about my children at that age, but I have found it a bit emotional. Jem says he would like to read the letters, but without the back-up of memories, I hope he doesn't find them boring.
