It has been a nice Christmas break, with all the things a week like that should contain. And one of the really good things about having a break, is that it makes it good to rejoin with the everyday again, too. The last day out of school was spent faffing about, making stuff (late Movember at Zoo Payne), drawing (can you see Freja's perfect little hedgehog drawing?), enjoying the few rays of sun we were blessed with, and more.
Now, we embrace January with patience in our hearts. Patience, because we know that winter will last a little longer, that the baby will need a little more growing time before coming out, and that life will start blooming on the farm in just a little more time yet.
