From yesterday:

1) On Monday I planted an amaryllis bulb…  A shoot has appeared already!

2) It’s 4pm, and I realise that it is still light.  We’re only a couple of weeks past the shortest day, but already the days can noticably longer. Spring is on the way 🙂 .

3) We stopped by the supermarket after school to pick up a couple of things. For once, the kids didn’t argue over who pushed the trolley, or wind each other up. In fact they behaved beautifully the whole way round.
