The first half of birthday season is over at the farm with the second half taking place at the end of this month. Between the 18th of January and the 2nd of March, all three children and the farmer celebrate their birthdays so it is a cake-heavy busy time. With no parties or formal celebrations … [Read more…]
It has been all about the C word at the farm this last month and, for once I don’t mean Covid. Christmas seems to have begun even earlier this year but, due to the nature of my children in general and the youngest in particular, I resisted in following the crowd and didn’t put the … [Read more…]
It’s been a funny old month for the siblings. Mainly because my daughter was off on half term for one week and then the boys were off the week after. While it meant that I got some lovely one-on-one time with my eldest, it also meant the siblings didn’t get a week together. On the … [Read more…]
I am a little later than usual with this month’s siblings roundup. The reason being that now they are pulled in different directions of the two schools and nursery, it makes it harder to get a photo of the three of them. Two I seem to manage and I did wonder whether this was the … [Read more…]
The longest summer in the world has finally come to an end and, all three children are back at school or nursery. I just hope Covid-19 can be kept in check to ensure the children stay in their educational settings. It has been a big deal for all of them and all three have been … [Read more…]
I am a couple of days late with this month’s Siblings post because, quite frankly, I don’t know where the time has gone. We are still at home on the farm but we did manage a trip out this month to Kenyon Hall Farm for our annual fruit picking. This year we picked strawberries from … [Read more…]
Another month of lockdown at the farm and we are still all happy, I think. I seem to have taken more photos of the boys this month. My daughter prefers a quiet life sometimes away from her rowdy brothers and she has had a couple of settling days in school to prepare her for her … [Read more…]
Another month at home on the farm and the siblings are still, mostly, having a great time together. A lot of warm sunny weather has helped and we have taken the dogs for walks, been on nature trails and set up little play areas on the grass or in the front field. The warm weather … [Read more…]
Thinking over the last month, I think there is one phrase which keeps coming to my mind and that is thick as thieves. My three have really enjoyed spending time together. I know they have no choice but it still makes me all warm inside that they actually like each other. Obviously there are arguments … [Read more…]
At the end of last month’s Siblings post, I said we had lambing preparation and Easter to look forward to and, while lambing has been much the same as other years (apart from visitors), the lives of mine and most other children have been turned upside down in the last month. No school, no swimming … [Read more…]
