Morning sunlight and bokeh on the dew and flowers.

Morning sunlight and bokeh on the dew and flowers. It was so nice to see the spring weather last week. (I've removed my under jacket from my 3 in 1 coat),It's less than a month to go before we get tennis open, and I've had my first jab (I felt so rough the next day and a headache on day 2). Let's just hope things keep going in the right direction rather than cases increasing again.
.
Now it's getting on with the last few days of remote learning while panicking because the new school trousers i ordered in same size as his 'next size up' pair (that do just about fit), don't. Fingers crossed the shorts I ordered do fit, as trousers 2 sizes up will drown him. I wish boys trousers would come with a longer crotch size rather than the low hip fit. We're ordering regular fit from M&S, not slim or skinny fit ones. Any advice on where to get softer feel normal size regular fit school trousers, do let me know (have some on order from Next but their fit is hit and miss too due to style).
.
Those of you with children, are you ready for back to school?

DAFFS I need to start buying flowers regularly again. Loved having these daffodils in the kitchen. I need to add them to my food shop each week as the usual market stall or stand in town isn't there due to being non essential. Can't wait for the daffodils in the lawns on the farm to bloom.Flowers to make me smile.#daffodil #daffs #yellowinmysquare #myworld_in_yellow #raw_colours #colourful_shots #color_captures #ccc_yellow #signsofspring #flower_beauties #flowers_shotz #cherishandrelish_february #springflowers #coloursofnature #ukflowers #prettyblooms #simply_flowers #myfloralmonth #flowers_super_pics #sharingtheflorallove #seasonalbeauty #daffodilseason #narcisi #fortheloveofflowers #flowersinstagram #happyflowers #whatsblooming #lovelyhappypic #isitspringyet #shared_colored_moments

Finally managed to get clear photos of the robin who visits our garden. It doesn't stay still for long. I'm gradually reaching N more about the birds, he was even the one who spotted a green woodpecker today. Watching the birds has been a positive distraction ever since lockdown 1.Do you have many birds visiting your garden?#robins #robinredbreast #birdsonearth #birdspotting #gardenbirds #bestbirdshot #britishbirds #britishwildlife #naturegrampixels #explore_wildlife #see_wildlife #dof_nature #ig_captures_nature #lensloves_nature #thislittlemoment_ #yourshotphotography #naturescene #naturefotography #total_naturepics #nature_spotlight #capturingbritain_nature #dof_of_our_world #raw_depthoffield #discoverunder5k #thingsyousee #lovelyhappypic #embracingslowerlife #magicwinter #dayofsmallthings #exquisitepics20

It was a surprise when I opened a box of eggs to find pretty white ones rather than the usual brown. It's important to find cheer in the little things. What's making you smile at the moment?

Ever since lockdown 1 I've been obsessed with watching the birds in the garden. I used to belong to a nature group Watch, in my childhood and its disgraceful how few birds N can actually name. Now all I need is a bird hide / shed I can open a window in to stick my camera through! Have you rediscovered wildlife since being at home more or on lockdown walks?

The rain came while the snow had disappeared. But I thought I'd share my photo to say hi, and because its not often take nice photos of me. Its an intense couple of days as we've got my work project's 2 day virtual conference. The OH can never understand how you can get tired from doing nothing except concentrating on a screen and talks all day, while he has a physical job. 1 day down, 1 day to go.#wrappedupwarm #bobblehat #makeYouSmileStyle #winterstyle #snowdays #lovelyhappypic #thiswintermoment #snowyyscene #cherishandrelish_january #your_life_etc #winterwhite #lovelyhappypic #findingthejoyinjanuary #happyselves #my_wintertale #snowdayselfie #gooutsidethiswinter #embracingslowerlife #countrystyleloves #outdoorsfamilylife #antijanuaryblues #winterlookslikethis #countrylivinguk #countrylook #smallPauses #DreamingInPictures #amonthingratitude #therealityofparenting
