...lucky leaf

I'm not getting on here regularly enough to post as things happen but I am jotting all my ideas down and storing my photos for those stolen moments when Joel is asleep. We haven't developed much of a routine yet, well what can you expect from a seven week old? So life at Oakbank still very much revolves around him.

A couple of weeks ago Millie and I got out on a stroll up the hill with him, we hadn't gone more than a few feet when Joel got his first bit of luck, a lucky leaf!


If you aren't familiar with this it's when a leaf falls from a tree and lands on you, perhaps it's seen as a rarity and that's why it's so good. It's certainly better than being struck by a bird poo, which strangely enough is also considered lucky! This is probaby something thought up to console the poo victim. Anyhow, this was a reminder of how autumn is well and truely with us now. Joels first autumn.

  1. Such a sweet picture and he doesn't seem at all bothered by the leaf in his face. I haven't heard of a lucky leaf but you're right it's much better than bird poo!

  4. It wasn't millie you were with, it was me!
    I was pooed on by a little bird the day after my birthday two years ago, I was a bit miffed but then Jeff said it was lucky so it wasn't so bad after all!
