Springing about...

Spring has sprung in the West of Scotland in recent weeks, and along with that goes a whole new world of outdoor adventures. The supreme being has been discovering the joys of nature as everything starts to come back to life after the winter. We've spent a lot of time outdoors looking for new shoots and buds, planting seeds and young plants, and discussing all about baby animals and checking the nesting box from a distance. I have a dedicated assistant in the garden now and Emily helped plant nearly 60 plants the other day...I was seriously impressed by her attention span as I was expecting she might get bored after the first 2 or 3. We were out there for hours :-). In recent weeks we have seeded the wildflower meadow, planted lots of perennials in the cottage garden, and put lots of seeds into pots and watched them all start to come to life...

But spring is not just about gardening. Recent weeks have also seen trips to museums, adventures in the play parks, the whole Gedik family visiting, and discovery of the world's largest chip...the latter being possibly the most exciting thing in a long time!
