My Easter Bunny.
He's my No 1.
When Bunny left for Oz, he didn't smile too much, he wasn't speaking, he was a wee bit tubby, and his hair was reluctant to grow.
Now, just a few months later, he's smiling, talking, slimmer, and he has lovely blonde hair.
The Australian climate has obviously been good for him, and Surfer's Paradise is showing its influence. I do hope he doesn't get to like it too much..... I want him back in France (and his Mum).
The time will soon pass. Thank goodness for modern communications and Skype - at least he'll know you when he sees you again. You won't be just a photograph or a voice down the telephone.
I am very late to the comment box, but do want to say what joy that dual portrait holds. I think that joy in their faces has come from seeing you and Lady M!
Just imagine the terrific times you all are going to have together ... on one or more continents. Wow!
BAD LUCK COMES IN THREES !!! ..........

Optimistic Cro!
The difference between an optimist and a pessimist, is that the optimist enjoys himself whilst waiting for the inevitable! I AM that optimist!
This is a daily, optimistic, 'photos and comments' blog. I make no judgements (only occasionally), just notes. If you wish to comment in any way at all, please feel free. Everything and everyone (except the obdurate and dictatorial) is very welcome.
I was born just south of London, but for the past 50 years I've lived in S W France. I am a painter by profession, and writer by desire. Lady Magnon and I live between an ancient cottage in a tiny village in perfectly tranquil French countryside, and a bijou townhouse in Brighton UK. In France we have plenty of fruit trees, all situated amongst a view that takes the breath away, in the UK we have a handkerchief sized patio. We also have a Border Collie called Billy. I try to treat our planet with respect, and encourage others to do likewise (without preaching).
Contentment is a glass of red, a plate of charcuterie, and a slice of good country bread. Perfect!
He's adorable and adored.
ReplyDeleteYes; both.
DeleteA lovely smile - I am still surprised at their choice of Surfers.
ReplyDeleteI thought it was supposed to be just their cup of tea.
DeleteHigh rise apartments, Shopping Malls, restaurants, bars etc. I thought they would have preferred a more down to earth place. Obviously not.
DeleteHealthy looking smiles, I need some sun!
ReplyDeleteMe too. I should have joined them in Oz.
DeleteSuch a cutey, she is very pretty too! Bunny is pointing out that you're a number 1 grumpy! Congratulations on your beautiful family! Greetings Maria x
ReplyDeleteThank you Maria.
DeleteMy, how he's grown ! When will they be back?
ReplyDeleteProbably around July, we think.
DeleteThe time will soon pass.

What a wonderful picture...sunshine is a tonic obviously...we need some here.
ReplyDeleteThe photo exudes sunshine.
DeleteWhat a great photo. I love her necklace!
ReplyDeleteBunny's is quite nice too.
DeleteHe looks like a little boy now, not a baby. Birthday for him soon too. Nice photo of them together.
ReplyDeleteHe's changed such a lot since he went away; you're right, he looks like a little boy now.
DeleteWhat a smasher. He will turn a few hearts in a few years time.
ReplyDeleteThat would be nice for him.
DeleteGorgeous .... don't they change quickly ...... I think there's a bit of the Cro about him too. XXXX
ReplyDeleteI was quite surprised to see how much he's changed; not too sure about the Cro bit.
DeleteFrom the earlier baby pictures he looked just like you; it is less clear in this one but I am sure he still does.
DeleteI think one winter, you should join them in warmer climes. It would be good for all of you.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm, it's the long flights that hold me back
DeleteI do think he looks like you.
ReplyDeleteWhat a little charmer!
He's a lovely little boy.

Best wishes.
We can't wait for them to get back. I quite expect when the times comes, they might feel the same.
DeleteIt really is a portrait of happiness.
