A Posy For Nan
Date:03rd August 2015| Category:General
Excitement filled the air as the children gathered flowers from our country cottage garden, a daffodil here a wallflower there, a sprig of delicate pink rosemary alongside a handful of glowing wattle were brought to the table for all to share. Busy hands snipped and cut until there before them stood cheerful bouquets of winter sunshine-look at mine, look at mine, I love it, I love it, was all we could hear. Then later in the day magical mandalas were woven from hand spun wool in the colours of the rainbow. A full day at Gillian’s Rainbow Bridge farm left the children happy, relaxed and proud of their day’s achievements, mandalas in one hand and posies in the other www.bagstyle.net.
Before we headed back to school everyone quickly gathered their treasures. Three of the children needed to make a quick exit from our farm bus in order to catch their connecting bus home. We turned the corner into the school the children scrambled out, and then scarpered up the path yelling and hollering to gain the bus drivers attention as he slowly moved away. To their relief it stopped and on they got. In his haste one of the children left behind his posy. A kind and considerate fellow student offered to bring it to school the following day.
What a surprise, there on his desk was his perfumed array looking as fresh as ever. Smiles from all as the class joined in the happiness of this astonished boy. This is what Gillian’s Rainbow Bridge loves to see, smiles and a happy ending.
