Irresistible



Autumn marked by the coming of these irresistible colours.    Always a joy as the summer passes into crisper days.    Not yet ready to do away with all of the warmth of the sunshine, these blue sky days and colourful trees feel like an extra gift.   This was a spontaneous weekend picnic and we were collecting again, preserving the colours as best as we can.

every evening calm







By the time our day reaches evening our home feels like every corner is filled with chaos. The kind of happy mess that only a toddler can bring to each and every available space. 

But it does often overwhelm me. These are the moments I am grateful for the evening light that daily streams through this window and brings calm to the chaos. An unreached space that I can look up at and breathe... a mobile silhouette of birds and stars somehow makes me smile every day. 

And then the big tidy up begins once the small person is finally asleep x
