We had the best holiday ever. I have no idea what I did to deserve it, but I am extremely grateful to Jane, who lent us her beautiful home and in doing so, enabled me, Jim, and the girls to have the most wonderful, joy filled, relaxing, and fun week we've had in a long, long time.
This is the third year in a row that I have been genuinally blessed by the kindness of friends sharing their homes with us (and in the case of Jersey last year, trusting their incredible home to us, without even having met us beforehand!). And as I say, I have no idea why I deserve such generosity but I am honestly and eternaly grateful for it.
Without friends like these, we would not have been able to have any family holidays. Which is a small thing, I know, but I treasure the fact that we are being given the chance to make memories for the girls and for me and Jim. Memories that I know will help us when times are not quite so good.
And I think it's obvious from these pictures that we've just made a lot of very good memories.
