She should be with us
Running

This is her special place
Was always meant to be
From Christmas Day 2012
When we booked her first birthday holiday
She came with us that first year
And from here she sailed
Four years ago

From here she sailed
Across the sea
To the sky
So now we come in her honour
For her memory
For her birthday
We are here on the farm
By her river

On Monday

Lovely to have you all back on the farm and some sunshine to welcome you too.
Sing me a song of a lass that is gone
Say could that lass be I
Merry of soul she sailed for a day
Over the land to Skye
Happy Birthday Matilda x
