*SMILE*...


Hello my lovelies...


I am back
and I have missed you
and your beautiful energy!


Yesterday
we
(along with a buddy)
went for our last 
"summer vacation" hike.


It was a good day...
along with a picnic lunch
and some communing with nature;
we could feel the slow moving in of fall
descending into the forest


it was beautiful


Later in the day we were off
to his first soccer practice
before a good nights sleep
before entering grade 5


And so It begins.


Another school season of 
schedules
 events
music lessons
field trips
sports
and all those things that go along
with being a mom



I am ready.


We all are ready.



It's been a great summer
and I have lots to share...


but for today
I will just say
Hello my lovelies....
I am back.


I have missed you...


Please tell me...
how have you been?

Love and Light

  11. So good to have you back! I feel like I just went on a long, lovely, soulful journey through your images! Makes me hunger for the space and quiet of the woods (hmmm ... upcoming weekend trip?)

    Looking forward to this season together ... seeing how you navigate the school obligations along with the quieter moments like these :)

    1. That is Ksan Indian Village about an hour from my home town where I grew up...if you like that print so much I can send you a copy : )

      thanks for asking...it is a beautiful place...one of the highlights for me
      I went there a lot as a kid growing up, so taking my son there was special...my oldest has been there as well
      it seems every time I go it is more sacred to me...must be my age : )

    2. Sacred, it sure is.
      You can take me there, too.
      I'm going to go read about that village now. Thank you sista.
