If you go down to the woods today, You’re sure of a big surprise. If you go down to the woods today, You’d better go in disguise.
and so we did….
So far this year I have failed in achieving some of the things I wanted to. I was envious of the lavendar field pictures, which filled my timelines and I have been unable to find a local pumpkin field. So, I decided that I was definitely going to get some halloween pictures. Baby chose her dress and was very happy to be allowed to wear it when we went to local woods.
She adored running around exploring the woods with her Aunty and I.
If she heard others coming she would shout ‘hide’ and head for the bushes, I am not really sure she realised how conspicious she was!
Baby is growing into a fun, feisty and loving little girl. It is such a blessing to be her mummy.
We chased each other, played hide and seek and Baby even sat in a tree for the first time.
It felt really magical, as the light was fading and my little witch was running around my feet, I was so thankful to have this day with her.
As she grows she will chose not to dress up, the events she celebrates will reduce in number and she will become more difficult to impress; this is inevitable, it comes as part and parcel of growing up, but it is sad nevertheless. I just want time to slow down, so we all take in the wonder of these years, when she thinks dressing up as a witch and running around the forest is such an amazing way to spend an afternoon.
So while I am sad I missed the lavendar, the poppy fields passed us by and pumpkins are still waiting to be picked, I am so thrilled Baby had her time as a witch. A wonderfully magical time that we will remember for a long time to come.
