Sally Mair - Loving life

Baby quiz

Somebody asked me recently if the three girls are alike so here you are, 3 children, 6 pictures all around the 5 month old mark.

I finally got home last night around 2 hours late, at midnight. Boy was I tired! I'm also a trifle concerned that the train was so busy as they decanted another train load onto ours and it stayed very full from 6.15 - 9.30. Not what I would have chosen. I'll just have to keep testing and hope that my carriage load of largely unmasked people were all very healthy.
I didn't go to church today, but enjoyed a long lie, m in law has gone home for a while, so there were no demands on my time today.
I worked in the garden, how could I resist? The sun was warm and everything looked in need of attention. I overdid it as always at this time of year, there's so much to do. I took out about half of my bed full of iris. There are just too many and for most of the year they look pretty dull. Hopefully they'll be pleased to have been shaken up and will flower well. I'm hoping I've not taken out all of my brown ones.
The camellia has started to flower, extra, only a few flowers at the moment. I do hope we don't have rain or a frost for a while so I can enjoy it. The delicate pale pink is so easily damaged and it's not so pretty once it has brown edges. I think I need to feed the plant, there's too many yellow leaves.
I had the company of a robin and a dunnock while I worked, the latter sat at the top of the apple tree and sang its heart out, the Robin sat on a rock near to me. A pair of blackbirds cans and the around some of the contents of last year's grow bag which i had topped onto the bed, to see if there was anything interesting. I worked for around four hours until I ran out of places to put all the waste.
We're having roast chicken for dinner tonight, always a treat.
Keep safe folks and pray for the Ukraine. We had a collection in church today to send to one of the aid agencies. It feels like here's so little we can actually do.
