day 54

"For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.” Audrey Hepburn


This picture captures the joy my parents shared yesterday, whilst celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary. They were surprised by us getting the family together for them but after being shocked they were thrilled. I'm really quite sure my 88 year old Mum didn't really believe she'd ever see both her sisters together again. The beauty that shone from those three octogenarians and my overwhelmed Dad, led to toasts that made us cry and the certain knowledge that they will always feel loved and cared for, means that they never need feel alone.
