...happiness catching up with a friend we had not seen for a few weeks, quiet, gentle days at home, creating time, conversations with my children

...sadness at misunderstandings

  4. We love The Little Red Train too. I think it's the time of year to start thinking about garden plans - I know I have been this week. We've had a chance to rest and recover from last year's growing, it naturally feels time to start again.
