Robins and the hole in my heart.

Even though it's one of my favourite things to do, I'm shattered after my day of Christmas cooking...red cabbage and apple, mincemeat shortbread, more chocolate stuffed dates and  birthday cake. I had bird visitors for company and distraction as I washed up about a hundred times. And more lovely cards and messages - feeling loved and remembered.

I leave you with some robin photos from my archives.  Every time I see a robin it reminds me that my Robin is never very far away...but their sweetness is no substitute for his absence....making the hole in my heart even deeper.

I wish you a Joyous Christmas and happy new year.

 And the robins and I will be back in 2019.
