At the eleventh hour, on the eleventh day on the eleventh month - we will remember them.

They shall grow not old,
As we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them,
Nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun
And in the morning,
We will Remember them.

Thank you to all our soldiers, past and present for your service may God bless you all 🇬🇧🌹❤️

We have had this beautiful moses basket and rocking stand donated to us from a family who we recently cared for their daughter.
Such a kind gesture as they navigate through their grief to help other families we care for.
Rest in eternal peace little one 🩷

May 8, 1945. London.

“My dear friends, this is your hour. This is not victory of a party or of any class. It’s a victory of the great British nation as a whole”

It's over, it's finished, the war has now been won,
Thank God it's finally ended; finished; over; done!
We'll no longer hear the sirens as the bombs come falling down,
No longer hear the aircraft as they fly above the town,
No longer see the searchlights lighting up the darkened sky,
Or see the burning buildings of the terraces nearby.
We can hear the people cheering as the bells peal out the news,
And we gather, dancing in the road, dispelling wartime blues.
It's victory in Europe - oh such a lovely sound,
No bombs, no incendiary fires, no more sleeping underground!
The roads are filled with happy people, celebrating victory,
The lights are on in every town, such a brilliant sight to see,
There’s bonfires and fireworks, a colourful display,
We’ll sing and dance and drink with cheer until night turns to day.
We'll not forget the sacrifices made by others in our name,
They gave their lives so we might live in freedom's sweet domain.
Their fighting now is ended, rejoice in victory,
England and her allies will remain forever free.

- Patricia Denise Newman
