On Saturday 2nd November 2013, we had the pleasure of attending the Matilda Mae Welly Walk at Beale Park, Reading. It was a beautiful day to celebrate the life of a very special little girl who left this world too soon, emotional for her parents and all that knew her, but as the sun shone down and bubbles floated to the sky it would have been impossible not to smile as children of all ages shrieked with laughter.
These photos tell the story of the day.
