back to nature

Over the weekend, we took our first walk by the river of the season;

I'm looking forward to making this a daily contact with nature.

I want us to make the most of what it has to offer.

And although this place is far away from home,

living here has given us a chance to slow down, look around

and admire the magnitude of nature.

Have a beautiful Wednesday!

a lesson for life

One of the things I want my son to learn as he grows up,

is to notice and appreciate the little things around him.

΅΅΅΅΅΅΅΅

When he woke up this morning I told him to look around and see if he could spot

something amazing that had happened while we were sleeping.

It took him a while, but when I showed him the little pots on the bookshelves,

he was so happy to see the bright yellow petals, which had sprung open overnight.

He was so excited he gave me a big hug and started jumping up and down!

Mission accomplished!

Take Care!

true colours

Isn't it shocking when you see the true colours of a person,

and realise they are so different from what you thought?

And how do you handle it when you know they're a hypocrite towards someone only to take advantage of this person?

...

Ah, but there's a catch here!

You don't like this second person yourself (and not without a reason)

but you prefer to keep your distances instead of being nice when they're around and nothing but nice when they're not.

What do you do when the first one starts a conversation like this:

'I had enough of her last weekend, I don't want to see her again; what use is she if she can't look after the children anymore?'

Hope your week is off to a good start.

Japan, we're praying for you.

PS. The picture shows what the colours of my blanket are really like. Compare with the pictures a couple of posts below.

My little man becomes six tomorrow!

Time flies for sure!
We made this cake yesterday
to take to school today.
When we finished it last night, he said:
'mum, you're amazing!' and hugged me really tight!
:)

Have a gorgeous weekend!
I hope I'll have more words to share next week.

Little Matters

~ which cd to listen to during my 'me-and-the-things-i-love' happy time?

~ which book to read next?

~ which spot would make my stripey blanket feel 'at home'?
