Benjamin Daniel Hughes

We have a new grandson! Benjamin arrived two weeks early, on November 2nd, weighing 6lbs 8oz. Hannah had been having contractions all over the weekend so was quite tired by the time he was born.
He has been very reluctant to learn to feed so they have been in hospital until today and Hannah hasn't had much sleep. Hopefully now they are home it will be a bit more relaxing and he will really get the hang of things.It is at times like this that I do feel far away and would love to be able to give him a cuddle.
I only have 1 shift next week so will try to blog some more then. Yesterday I planted some plants in the garden and cut the grass wearing sandals and T shirt. Then within a couple of hours the wind swung round to the south and we had a heavy snowstorm. The weekend before last we visited Bleaker Island for our wedding anniversary. The weather was a bit bleak but the cottage very cosy and the birds fantastic.
