We headed over to a play area with the biggeat scrabble board we had ever seen. There were SO  many people around, there was no way to really play a game.

We made out way over to the secret garden, and I just love how cute these kids are.

The paper swan garden.

It was lovely as always. And, as always, feeling tired and grateful for my children, and spring, and this lovely world, and this beautiful place we get to live.
