💙🦋 Celebrating World Autism Awareness Day at MaryK's 🦋💙

💙🦋 Today, we all wore blue in celebration of World Autism Awareness Day, which reminded us everyones brain works in its own amazing way. Children took part in fun activities that explored the beauty of our differences, helped us learn about kindness, understanding, and how we are all unique in our own special ways. 🦋💙

As Daffodil Day approaches, MaryKs daffodils are standing tall and bright in the morning sunshine 🌞 Paired with purple grape hyacinths 🪻 and pink tulips 🌷 they are attracting all types of attention from children, families, the community, and the busy bees 🐝

Our flower garden is thriving with the bluebells preparing to flower, sprouting lupins, and gladioli, and dahlias germinating. This wonderful sunshine is just what we need to enhance our beautiful garden 🏡👨‍🌾👩‍🌾
