The meaning of this picture is in the memory that it invoked.
I came to London today to see my younger daughter and we went for a walk in Holland Park. It is beautiful weather and the gardens, in particular the rose gardens, look lovely. As I looked at this garden I remember coming here a day or two after Emma was born with her father. I sat on one of the seats and we looked out on the garden and felt tremendous gratitude for having this new little person to come and share our lives.
At that moment I felt very connected to Emma's father who died some years ago as well as Emma and of course Sam who I feel continues the tradition of bringing joy to his mother.
