Days quietly passing

So weather-wise we're having a pretty miserable summer. Yet again. Sigh.
But as long as I get to sit in the sun for a little while every day, and as long as my boys get to play out instead of in for at least part of the day, as all children should, then I'm happy,
Yesterday I sat in a friend's garden and we watched our kids play with sheets drying in the windThe sound of peel after peel of laughter was a joy to behold.
Meanwhile the big boy was busy swimming in the sea at Sandown, Isle of WightSo really, I'm not complaining. Even though it's wet and windy as I write, the days are passing quietly, happily, and I'm finding myself not really minding the weather. Much.
