summery

the girls are well into the swing of summer already - out on their bikes a lot up and down the street and to the wee park through the distillery on their own, which is new. it's hard to trust that they'll be careful on the road or that some idiot isn't going to be driving too fast near them...but I have to let them do it. I'm relieved every time they come shooting back into the garden and they're sick of me reminding them to stop at the end of the lane.

here they are enjoying a cone after bickering and playing for a few hours. mainly bickering...

I can see them turning slightly feral in the holidays.
