Monday, September 17

I've noticed lately a slowing down around me sometimes it worries me a little but I know that really none of us can sustain being busy all the time it's just not healthy.  So when the worry (or you could say the over thinking) creeps in I look to the photos over the weekend and smile at the moments that I need to focus my energy on, the special moments that have happened in my life.
Like getting to meet my new niece and see those sweet little new born hands and feet.
Seeing my other sweet niece taking off her shoes, toddlers are so very cute.
Getting the chance to go on a date with my hubby and enjoy the smell of the bay air.
Bees busily collecting nectar.
Watching my youngest enjoying strumming the guitar that belonged to her Dad.
And although no photos to share the zest that Spring has brought and the wonderful feeling that tidying and rearranging our home has made me feel this weekend.

What made you smile this weekend?

  3. Oh my goodness, those little feet! I love that your youngest is having a go at guitar, I'm hoping one of mine will take it up, we only have a drummer at the moment, which is great but not quite the same..x

  4. Both your nieces are gorgeous, even if I can only see the newborn's feet! Sounds like a delightful weekend.

  5. Such tiny wrinkled little baby feet..amazing photo. I think we are mostly the same..having family around and enjoying them in a fairly relaxed manner made me smile on the weekend. Congratulations on your anniversary too.
