Me and Mine – June 2023

 

May was the last time I sat down and wrote a Me and Mine post, my first since the New Year. For years I have enjoyed capturing our monthly family photo and then writing a round-up of our time together. The start of this year really has knocked us off our feet and only in the last couple of months have we started to feel like we have settled back into life. Whether that’s finding joy in the small moments, adjusting to spending milestones and special days without Leonard, or feeling that it is OK to make plans for the future.

 

I said this in my April update which I wrote in May, I haven’t been so good at capturing a family photo this year, although I did manage one in April and again in June. I guess life really has taken over and certainly stifled my creativity. I feel like I am slowly getting back on track, sharing our family life, my style, and of course, as the weather has been kind – the places we travel to and days out. So, here I am sharing some moments of joy from Chapter 6, the month of June (and maybe May too).

MUMMY

Family and friends BBQ’s, enjoying the morning sunshine in the garden, getting back to Cornwall in May half term, escaping to Lytham for Father’s Day, making plans for California, celebrating not one but two birthdays in June for Bob and George and lastly catching the sunset on Fistral beach.

AND THAT’S OUR ME AND MINE – JUNE 2023

 

Despite everything the start of 2023 has thrown at us I am so glad that we have still managed to capture our little family during a really difficult time. As we move forward into the second half of the year, I am hopeful of a brighter 2023 and how it takes shape for our little family.

And so, as Chapter 6 of 2023 is coming to an end, I wish you all a wonderful Summer time ahead.
