Aah..hh some sunshine ..

How blessed we were with the sunshine today.

I (Carly) even got the sunscreen out! Very exciting the prospect of some warmer days to enjoy at the farm.

Early in the day, we got presented with a map that luke had made in the morning, the map was of the farm.

It had all of us on it and all the animals too. This map set our day up as it led Lola, Ali Samson and I on adventures and we couldn't get lost ... ... after all, we had our trusty map!

The day was rich with friendship, the children all played together so well. I really saw the love they have for one another and how trusting they are of me, really listening to what I had to say and taking me in.

I was also really able to sit back and watch as all the kids played games that changed quite rapidly from being dinosaurs, to being cows, then dogs  ... ... all just organically unfolding, but without any fuss, so not much need for me to intervene.

It's really great to see how much they grow and change week to week.

We also had a treat today ... 

It is Lukes birthday on Saturday, so Vicki made some gluten free cup cakes for us to all share (which I'm sure Monique would have loved, but she was still not well this week. We missed her being there .. )

We sang happy birthday and chomped on the really yummy cupcake after our lunch.

Thanks Vicki!

What a great adition to our sunny fun filled day at the farm ...
