Thank you card and Lily

February


This is the month for GRATITUDE. to be thankful, one of my practises I try to do daily - I have a few of these beautiful THANK YOU cards dotted around the house and when I catch a glimpse of them it reminds me to STOP SLOW DOWN and appreciate what I truly have GOT.

April


Spring and the warmth of the sunshine, and of course EASTER, I love the opportunity to decorate around the house and then spend the rest of the year finding random bits I've missed in the clear up! No one's too old for the Easter Bunny and we have a special one that leaves a Easter Egg Hunt for us in the garden each year #nevertoooldfortradition

Love Love Loving the sun at the moment, Photo of me with some dandelions which I carried back home whilst on our 2 hour walk with friends, and I was assured by small people that "We really need them" which as usual didn't get a second look at once we got home!
