Thought for the day...

It's been a lovely sunny day again here in the North West.....something we've had a bit of a lack of just recently! Sometimes when the weather is rubbish, life's busy, busy, busy and stress levels are flying high it's so easy to forget how fortunate we really are.....

I have two gorgeous, healthy children, one lovely hubby who does things just to make me happy, and the amazing countryside and mountains that I can see from my window. Ok it's not always smelling of roses but sometimes it's good to take a step back and really look!!

Yesterday we watched the farmer collecting his hay bales in the back field, (excuse the picture of the horrible fence!)!  We are so blessed to live near enough to a town but still be out in the middle of nowhere and able to watch the farming seasons pass. This field sometimes has sheep in, sometimes cows, and sometimes hay bales!!

And today we went for one of our favourite walks in a quiet, un-touristy part of the Lake District where the only noises you hear are the cows, sheep, running water, birds and sometimes tractors....

Yes..............I must remember just how fortunate we are!!
