Living Arrows – 35/52 (2020)

September 5, 2020

 

Goodbye summer.

 

Living Arrows – 35/52 (2020)

 

We’ll miss those hot sticky days of ice lollies and sandy toes.

 

Of walking round and round the park (till we couldn’t stand it any longer) before lock down eased.

 

Then finally that incredible feeling of freedom from being able to go out-out again.

We’ll sort of miss those weeks of trying our very best at home schooling and we’ll definitely remember throwing summer school out the window on the 1st day of August. Sssshhhhh!!! don’t tell the teachers. (Sorry if you are a teacher and have just read that. I promise it was all my fault!).

 

Most of all, we’ll miss the humongous amount of together time we’ve had, from, well, everyone being at home together-together.

 

I don’t think we’ll ever forget this summer.
