Just as the weather took a turn for the better both Freya and I came down with a bug. Typical!
Freya doesn’t really understand the concept of being ill and despite my repeated attempts to get her to rest, especially when she had a fever, she could manage it for about a minute before she wanted to do something. All I wanted to do was lie on the sofa but, of course, parents don’t get sick days.
I was beginning to suspect she wasn’t all that poorly when she put herself down for a nap on Friday afternoon, which is almost unheard of. I wouldn’t generally take a photo of her when she’s poorly but she was bathed in a gentle light from the window and looked so peaceful, I couldn’t resist. I’m happy to report she’s back to her old self again now.

Hi Tara, sitting and watching the children when they slept was something I enjoyed doing (when they were small). We get to see them in a different light (literally in Freya’s case). It’s a lovely photo and I like the b&w effect. I hope you are both well now.
