Isobel is 7!


Things I don't want to forget about you in your seventh year....

How bright and big your smile is and how it shows in every inch of your face and bursts out into the room and into my heart and soul.

Your kindness and unfailing generosity, you will always give away your last bit of chocolate or your last bite of bacon (and I know how much you love bacon!!).

Your wide and wild imagination. I hope you always keep it too.

Your toothless grin that only made your smile even more adorable :)

Your love of Fairies (and borrowers and elves and gnomes and trolls).

The way you say the word nature with an M.

The way you will turn even the simplest object, a tiny stone or twig or flower bud into the most precious play thing you ever did possess!

The treasures I find in your pockets and filling up your lunch bag at the end of the day......rosehips (always rosehips!), pussywillows, pinecones and twigs.

Your love of babies and the sweetness and care you show to every. single. one. you encounter!! I am quite certain that one day you will be the most wonderful Mama.

Your love of school. It makes my heart soooo happy that even when you feel unwell you so, so want to go.

Your enthusiasm for everything! Listening to a story. Running the bath, taking out the garbage.

That you cut your own fringe at school and at first I was mad but then I noticed how it suits you perfectly in all it's zig-zaggy uneven glory!

That for now, I am your absolute favourite person.

Your hugs.
















I love you Isobel.
