The jasmine tumbling over the fence in our back courtyard filled the entire house with fragrance today, as the big, yellow sun pressed perfumed oil from every petal.
Summer gave a cheeky grin. “I’m almost here,” it whispered. “I’m just around the corner.” And for once I smiled back.
So I strapped on the sling, and Madeleine and I took Oliver for a walk and a picnic in the park.
Madeleine’s roly poly dimples.
A fragrant breeze.
Laughing children.
A banjo-strumming troubadour.
Cloud patterns.
Delicious daydreams.
Little purple flowers in the grass.
Why hello, Summer. Perhaps, this year, I’ll be happy to greet you after all.


Oh wow that is such a pretty place! And gee Madeleine is so gorgeous! I love her Blue Checked Top – so pretty.
Yeah I am looking forward to the warmer weather.
Jasmine is such wonderful – the smell gives me so many memories of my childhood
Thanks for sharing Edinburgh Gardens.
I want to come to the park and picnic and play. Looks like Miss M and Mommy had a blast.
Looks like summer is on its way!
