These shots were taken on the weekend of my birthday (end of April)... the bouquet and the vases they came in were a gift from Neighbour M, all the blooms gathered from her garden. She also gave the mini cosmos card.
Neighbour M and Dad have catchup in the sunshine - socially distanced! |
Dad's street - normally end to end cars... The main science campus for the Uni of Edinburgh is just up the top there. |
What a lovely colorful post YAM. Fresh posies right out of the garden must have been very fragrant.
ReplyDeleteDad and M are having a fine visit. Would I be correct in saying you favor your handsome Daddy?

ReplyDeleteIn times like these, the ability to take pleasure in small things is so important. Pretty flowers and a chat with a dear old friend in a sunny garden a case in point.
ReplyDeleteHi Yam - how wonderful to see your father happy and outside ... you're doing a great job ... similarly I have happy memories of my mother's last years, even though she was confined to bed: it was, like yours, a positive time. That's so kind of your neighbour ... what a great card, while those flowers are just gorgeous. Love the photos and memories ... thank you - Hilary
