SNOW!!!
Ursula has never seen snow, except in books.. until today.
We had a small fall during the night, and I waited until after breakfast until flinging back the curtains and showing her the beautiful sight of everything dusted like confectioners sugar.
We went over to Peel Bank, and played in the fresh snow until we were blue with cold, then back to the house for coco and toast.
I know Ursula is having a blast, but I also feel like I am five again, and giddy with the fun and newness of it all.

Back in blighty.
So I arrived back at my Fathers on Friday for a 10 day visit.
This would be a big deal on any day, but this visit was very special indeed. I brought Ursula with me on this trip, and managed to keep it a secret from everyone.
After getting home and greeting my Father, I brought Ursula in to the room. My Dad just came un-glued.
The last time he saw her she was only 18 months old, and he really thaught that he would never get to see her again. His day now starts with a sweet "good morning Grandpa", a hug and some bed bouncing.
It is doing him more good than the mountian of drugs he needs to take and nourishes him more than the oxygen he glups.
This shot was taken second after he saw her.
