Matilda: The new school year started on Thursday and with it you began a full time spot at Croileagan. From now on each and every weekday morning we walk together to Stornoway Primary School and then meet again for lunch. I've been feeling in equally full measures; sentimental, proud and excited for you.
George: Here, I was just about forgiven for putting beetroot on your plate. You were VERY unhappy with the situation. You're so funny. It's lovely to have some time with you while our big girl (who insists she is absolutely not big) is busy at school.
Joining in with Jodi's lovely 52 project.
Awwww... Matilda at school and George refusing beetroot; all is at once right and also unbelievable. Beetroot is the devil's vegetable...xxxxxxx
ReplyDeletebeautiful. beautiful. (did I day that recently as well?). That first one of Matilda is blissfully gorgeous. and george, those big teary eyes will melt any mama's heart. xo
ReplyDeleteBeautiful words this week. Can totally relate. & for the record sailor collars are always a winner
ReplyDeleteO, the tearful betrayal! I have been met with that many times at the sight of a vegetable! I love the way you caught the fall of hair and the neck in Mathilda's portrait - such an intimate moment in preparing for school! Our little ones don't start school till January, but it seems like such a big and exciting step!
ReplyDeleteSo powerful Matilda's portrait!
ReplyDeletedarling!
ReplyDeleteThis is like a glimpse into the future, this will be us in about a year or so. My big girl at school and my little boy refusing vegetables - I can see it now.
ReplyDeleteI love the glimpses of the tiny things, the young neck, the baby hair *sniff*. It's all gorgeous. Beautiful photos Holly! x
ReplyDeleteThe portrait of Matilda is breathtakingly beautiful in its simplicity and sentiment. And sailor collars, the king of all collars don't you think?! Belinda x
ReplyDeleteThese are so lovely! I picked your Matilda as one of my favourites this week :) x
