It might come in useful one day...

A few weeks ago BH was sorting the summer house out, lots of things had got put in there for storage out of the garage when the roof started leaking. I drive BH mad because I keep everything and I mean everything, just in case we might need it!! I am a real hoarder!! lol While he was sorting things out I spotted our daughters old rocking chair from when she was a toddler, shes 26 now!! I asked him if he could clean it up for Ava. It has been in the conservatory a couple of weeks now and I had forgotten all about it. On Saturday afternoon Ben saw the rocking chair, and sat little Ava in it ...

she loved it!! It was worth keeping it all those years just to see her little smiling face!!


These beautiful flowers are what the lovely Jill bought me!! Thanks Jill I love flowers and they are gorgeous.
