We had our first outing today managing a short walk in the park and a coffee in the walled flower garden. The fresh air and sunlight were wonderfully restorative and I lay on the grass inhaling the perfume wafting from the flower beds around me, while Stu read and Sophia slept. It was physically very tiring but fabulous for the spirits, and importantly for me, Sophia slept the whole time in her stroller while being wheeled over the bumpy terrain which gives me a confidence in taking her out again soon. She also did her first wheelie (hmmm, wonder who was pushing the stroller at the time?!), which will also be her last wheelie if I have anything to do with it!
