What a difference the sunshine makes

I’ve been quiet on the blog front for the past couple of week as I’m still recovering from a virus that I’ve had since Christmas and has totally wiped me out.  From talking to other people, I think half the population has succumbed to a virus of some description this winter.  Our youngest son came home from school last Wednesday screaming with earache and six days later, he is only just starting to be himself again.  Yesterday he slept for 14 hours, which is unheard of in our house, as he rarely needs more than 8 hours a night.  A sure sign that he is not 100%. 

Seeing the sunshine today though has lifted the pair of us.  It’s amazing how the weather affects everyone’s mood and hopefully now as it gradually stays lighter for longer each night, the gloom of winter will lift and we can enjoy spending more time outdoors.  Our son is certainly happiest when he’s outside burning off his ‘Duracell bunny’ energy.  I enjoy walking Ludo, our puppy far more when I don’t have to wrap up in lots of layers and can feel my fingers!!  Here's hoping today is the start of things to come and spring is on its way.
