Reflections of April!
April has been manic!
It has been extremely busy with lots of trips to various conferences & meetings. I’ve become a governor at another school which is in special measures & the 100 Word Challenge over on the other blog has got at least 150 entries most weeks! So for a retired lady things have been busy.
April has also been it’s usual sad month too. Both my parents died in this month – my father on the 1st & mother on 10th. As I get older I’m beginning to think of them more somehow. Perhaps it’s that mortality thing.
Above all, this April has been warm & sunny. The weather man has given out stats that say you have to go back to 1881 to get anything near (or that may be as far as the data goes!). Whatever the answer, it has been beautiful so my picture to represent it is this one, taken in the New Forest.
The hopeful sun rising like a beacon over nature–great message.
What a glorious photo, its been a beautiful April hasn’t it 🙂
Must be an emotional month for you. Glorious sunny photo.

Beautiful picture. Sorry to read about your mum and dad. Hope you are ok and that May is a little less hectic for you x
That is beautiful! Maybe it is a little bit of your Mum and Dad shining down on you to let you know they think of you too! x
Stunning shot. At first glance I thought it was an asteroid about to hit the earth. It’s like a painting.
beautiful blue sky – lifts the spirits.
That sums April up very well. It’s a great photo Julia x
