A Beautiful Morning

Today is a beautiful autumn morning here, with truly blue skies and golden sunshine. The morning shadows are crisp and long but it is not too cold, just refreshing. So I took little bear to the park.

This time last year, even if I could physically make it, it would have been too daunting to contemplate, but today we went.

Little bear thought it was marvellous! He climbed up the climbing frame. He slid down the slide. He climbed up the slide. He tried to launch himself into mid air to reach a pole that was way out of his reach and he was way above my head (my reflexes are really improving). He had a nice run round and saw some nice doggies. It was lovely.

Poor little bear, however, because the special surface on the playground was incredibly slippy, like ice. I was being careful and little bear kept landing on his nappy to his frustration.

We got home before any deliveries could come (ebay has been very friendly lately) and now little bear is eating an apple and sultana cake and watching tv - but at least he has had some exercise.
