Remembrance Sunday Centenary 1914 - 2014

Sailor's Corner, Arnos Vale Cemetary

After torrential rain and dark skies on Saturday, yesterday morning was so beautiful. Just before 11am I took Eve to Arnos Vale Cemetary so that we could pay our respects at the war graves. There weren't many people around. It was so quiet and fresh. The sunlight was shining down on the graves - even on the war graves that are in separate areas of the Cemetary. Somehow it seemed to make it's way through the trees to shine on them. It was very moving.  We must always remember the sacrifices that people from all over the world make during times of war.

Eve still has a bad cold and is very crusty and also now has a bad cough. However, she was so happy when I dropped her off at nursery this morning. I sat her down on the little chair with the other children around the table to play with the animals and she was just beaming. I am such a proud mummy today and am so thankful!
