One Perfect Spring Day

Spring took us by surprise this year in that it arrived when it should have. Chances are we won't see another sunny day for months but while it lasted, it was superb. One of the first days, we headed out to the park with my sister and niece.











Later on that day, once Emily had woken up from her nap, we dusted off the picnic blanket and took it out into the garden, brought along a few toys for entertainment and just whiled away an hour. Emily was of course more interested in picking up dead bugs from between the decking boards, and I even got the opportunity to introduce her to a live ladybird (which she tried to kill). I may need to keep an eye on this little munchkin!
