Back in Macclesfield, our granddaughter is growing up rapidly.
We don't get to see her as often as we may like, but modern technology allows us to keep in touch remotely.
Having reached the age of 2½ she was able to start at nursery school and get more opportunities to interact with other children of her age.
At the end of her first term, the traditional photos were taken.
Her first 'school' photo.
Here is a snap sent earlier in the year, during the May heatwave in the UK.
