With many years experience working as a Senior PA / Office Manager with excellent Human Resources and Administration experience I developed this blog to show what I can bring for businesses in the North East of England. In my leisure time homes are my passion and so I've captured things that I've done in my home and garden.

Butterflies, Bumblebees & Fairies

I've just read an article in this month's Psychologies Magazine, "Why do children make things up?" and within the article a little girl called Manon aged 5 says this,

"When I'm not in my room, my teddies have a party.  I know because sometimes I can hear them.  But as soon as I come in, they all go back to their places - they are naughty!  It's like fairies.  We can't see them, but they're the ones who paint the colours on butterflies' wings and the stripes on bumblebees.  Fairies and unicorns live in an imaginary world.  But that doesn't mean they don't exist, just that they're magic.  It's the same with Father Christmas.  He is real for the people who believe in him, like my mum and dad do.  If I don't, they won't exist then what would the butterflies and bumblebees do?

How adorable!
