One of the gifts that we gave Rhiannon last night was a Sponge Bob disposable camera. After she opened it we explained to her that it wasn't a digital camera which is all she's ever used before. We told her that she only had a limited number of photographs to take on it and that then we'd have to get someone to print the pictures out. She nodded and then carefully selected the composition for her first photograph. Her sister and 4 year old cousin were next to her, cheering her on. She took the picture, the flash went off, then her cousin and sister flocked to her as she flipped the camera over. They looked for the preview picture for a few seconds before one of us explained to them that there wasn't one and they all went off to find new toys with disappointed groans.

I went for a long walk around the old cemetery near my house today. It was quiet and calming. My mood has swerved between irritable and outright bitchy for hours now so I think I needed it. I've decided to start walking through the entire cemetery. It is rather large so that task should take me a few visits. One of the more interesting things I saw today was this foot stone. Among all the wife of's, 'she sleeps so sweetly' and everyone who knew him loved him's it really stood out.
