Quiet Summer Play
Mikey playing in a small paddling pool in my parents garden during the last week of our stay with them in England. A Not-So-Wordless Wednesday post linked with:
English Rain [Monthly Reading Love]
I’ve begun waking at a more reasonable hour in the mornings, so I think that means that I’m getting used to this time zone again. We’ve managed to get a few things done around the house and spent some time…
On the River
We’re back home in Chicago, making efforts to recover from the time difference. Mikey and I have been waking up at 4am each morning so far and the days have been blending together. We had managed to miss most of…

Wells-Next-The-Sea [Summer Daze]
Last week we took a day to visit a nearby seaside town, making the most of the sunshine and the fact that Grandma and Granddad still had a few days left off of work. The sun was shining for us…
