Dazzling

 



When we bought a new computer a few months ago it came with a very shiny sticker on it. You may quite rightly wonder why I've opened this post with such a mundane sentence. However, this rather unremarkable shiny sticker has bee hiding its light under a bushel it would seem as this is what happened when the lower level of sunshine that we get at this time of year hit it.

Instead these are my son's photos who just happened to be here...he's normally very low key, but this time he'd shown them to me before I'd barely got through the front door🤣 Have a great weekend folks. We're going to be trying to fathom out how to make a wren mask (don't ask)😁

Now the child is in school, and her youngest sister is growing up too. It won't be long before the film comes down. I will miss it.

    How lucky you were with your sticker! That's amazing color!

    Loving the rainbow refraction! x
