Countryside









There's not a lot to do in the countryside in winter. So, when the sun is out we find ourselves walking. Sam loves holding Patch - his dog now and Bella just loves walking. Slowly, I admit but she likes to take her time - picking up sticks and examining them and erm looking through peoples windows (no-one was in, thank goodness!).

Sam is the sweetest boy. In the first photo Bella was having a stubborn moment and wouldn't move any further. Usually, when Sam does this he realises we've walked off and runs to catch us up. Bella will stay there all day. So, Sam went back and told her of a game he wanted to play with her just to get her to move. I love the way he doesn't hesitate and has it in his nature to do things like this. Yes, they do fight  alot too :)

The sun isn't shining at the moment. These were taken last weekend. Hopefully, it will return soon.

  6. Your Sam sounds like such a dear, sweet heart. I wish I had a son who had a tender heart like that. He is going to be a great husband and father one day.
