In The Sunny Spot: Midsummer

Midsummer

While I am working on a post full of baby pictures (baby animals, that is), I thought I would pop in to wish you a happy Midsummer's Day! (bring on the fairies!)

I should, also, probably mention that school ended for us, yesterday, and I will, also, say, "let the wild rumpus begin!!"

Oh! and, while I'm at it.... I should share some pics of Toby's graduation from elementary school on Wednesday. It feels like we're all grown up around here and fast leaving childhood behind - sniff!

and, so, I only meant to share one pic and wish you a happy Midsummer's Day and look what's happened. So, while I'm at it, I should probably mention that the operation went well. I'll know the results some time next week! Thank you so much, once again, for all of the kind thoughts! :)

and, now, the garden is all watered. Blog post and greetings sent. I think I'm going to go put my feet up and read a book! :) I've got my sights set on 'Wildwood' - it looks fun!

Oh! and one other thing. The first and last pictures were taken last year on Midsummer's Day in the middle of the day with the sun just glowing overhead - pure magic!!

Dearest Katy:

What joy to see a post from 'In the Sunny Spot' come into our sidebar and bringing with it all the joy, warmth and colour of this Midsummer Day [Northern hemisphere, we hasten to add].

Such a wonderful picture of Toby at the start of this post. Please tell him that we wish him every success as he moves on with his education. Life, as one becomes older, brings with it so many challenges all of which we are certain he will meet with that indomitable spirit which shines out of his picture. And you too, Katy, must now brave the next few days for your results when we are confident that all will be well.

Take great care and enjoy this lovely day. Our love to you all. xxx

Yah! For summer!! Doesn't officially start until school is out! In Canada we went much longer than the states (of course Canada's summer was later in arriving)

Me? I am friendly AND shy, extremely optimistic and quite a bit of a day dreamer. I am impulsive and deep loving, with a definite inner streak of pragmatic. I love to stare at sunbeams and dappled shade, the scent of rain and water and beautiful things thrill me to tears. In short, I'm confessing to being a "HOPELESS romantic". I'm married to Tom, who is the pastor of one of the churches here in town and I have 3 tall, handsome and very creative boys - Toby (14), David (16) and Lliam (18) - and looking at what wonderful men that they're growing into, I'm both so proud and so humbled! I love beautiful things and working forever on making my home a sanctuary. I love Scrabble and just words in general and adore pretty fabrics, paper and china! I am a lyric/coloratura soprano and I would play the piano for 8 hours a day if I could but, now, I spend most of my free time (and some more than that) on my passion for photography. Most of all, however, out of all these things, I love God the best. I'm here because I want to share the simple, golden warmth and joy of the Sunny Spot that I'm in with you.

I'm desperately addicted to Scrabble and drool when I see fabrics or china (very embarrassing). I am a lyric/coloratura soprano and I would play the piano for 8 hours a day if I could.
