Autumn winds return

What a difference a day makes in autumn, the weather has become more over cast and windy, leaves falling everywhere now. Yesterday we managed to clear the garden a bit and mow the lawn, hopefully for the last time this year.
L's throat is almost better, a huge relief for us all and normal sleep has resumed. She is enjoying school so much at the moment, learning about trees and botany in her mail lesson and lots of fun woodwork and handwork. Felting is exciting her too and she is already planning Christmas requests.
I notice her language and vocabulary improving lots, she is getting better at describing things and using her imagination. Her poetry is very impressive although spelling could be improved.
Soup for lunch today and then A's new teacher will be coming for afternoon tea. I am almost not looking forward to going back to uni and placement, I need to read more relevant books and inspire myself with the art and wonder of midwifery and remember what drew me to it those years ago. And not think about medical hospitals, registras, epidurals, sutures and matrons. Mmmmm.
