Bluebell Belle!

There's a certain time of the year, at the tail end of spring and just before the dawn of summer that the woods bloom with a blanket of bowing bluebells. This awesome display doesn't last long before they seem to disappear as quickly as they came. But while they are out they are a joy to see.

Just Another of Many!

This time for looking after a younger child that was visiting the school as a prelude to starting in the Autumn. I think they just about summed up my personality pretty well with this award!

Twins!

My twin cousins Adalbjorg and Sigrun from Iceland came to stay with us late spring/beginning of summer as part of their trip around Europe by rail. Here they are visiting Stonehenge, which is just a few miles from where I live.

Winter Beach!


Sometimes my mum and dad take me to the beach - even in winter! I don't mind though. It's fun to play on the sand and fill buckets of water even if it means my feet do turn blue!

The Little Ballerina!

As the year progressed I continued to attend ballet class. More about that later.

Pippi Longstocking!





















We were allowed to go to school dressed as a our favourite character from literature. Naturally, I went as Pippi Longstocking!

My Turn!





















So, I found this new way of communicating back in February 2013. Actually, the 23rd of that month if we are going to be precise. Dad and Granddad were watching television and I wanted to watch my programs on tv. Dad said that I had to wait while they finished watching what they were watching. But I didn't want to wait so I went and wrote them this note and thrust it at my dad. He was so flabbergasted that I would think to communicate in this manner and more so that he didn't know I could write a sentence like this. So I got a few words wrong but I was only 4 and a half when I did this. Dad let me watch my program!
