Here comes the sun…

(I was supposed to post this back in February, hence the snow - oops! Anyway, this is for all of you waiting for your Spring or Summer wedding!).
Despite the attention-grabbing, almost ominous presence of “W-day” on the horizon we’re still able to find so much joy in the silly little things of now each day. Building snowcastles on a hilltop in Nottinghamshire, revelling in the loud riffs and innuendos of some classic ACDC, enjoying the amazing sound that a pile of melting snow on the pavement makes when you stamp in it, baking a big gooey coffee-chocolate cake for no particular reason, annihilating our taste-buds at an awesome curry house for our 3 year anniversary…
Now we’ve started to notice a change in the air; the snow melts, the ice thaws, the sky gets noticeably brighter at hometime every day. The crocuses came in to flower here this week and the daffodils are growing fast!
We’ve been through some crazy and stressful times the last few months and in some ways “it’s been a long cold lonely winter” for us. But “here comes the sun”, and now is the time to put out new shoots, to cast away the huddled-up worries of winter and break new ground, to end this long season of self-analysing and outreachingly be, and enjoy living!
