there's a playful puppy entertaining us all. slow and gentle starts to the day {we're loving the homeschool pace}. no more lunch boxes to make. sneaky puppy poos in the corner. french classes to look forward to. cucumbers in the garden. creative chaos covering every surface. a sketch in pen and watercolour each day. golden sunrises to tempt me out of bed. early morning walks. meetings with the architect down at the farm. a new house to dream about. juicy nectarines fresh from the tree. endless hours by the water. honey ice-cream after beach visits. mountains to climb {and carry small people down}. a guitar to get acquainted with. a giant jigsaw puzzle to tinker with. a new rhythm to find our way with. a head spinning with it all. a feeling of things being just as they should be.

All sounds delightful....hope you are enjoying the heat xxx
ReplyDeletePerfect beach weather Bron! Hope you are keeping cool.
DeleteThat all sounds rather dreamy as I scoff down some breakfast in between packing lunch boxes and finding hats and jackets (surely not needed today?!) to make the dash down the hill. Hope to bump into you at another beach soon (Prawn Rocks this afternoon?) Love your leaves, puppy, and that rather delicious little boy of yours. xx
ReplyDeleteBut then you get six hours of quiet and tidy house! See you Thursday. xo
DeleteSounds wonderful! I love the kids at the table, the apples and your leaves are exquisite. Oh for the slow days back again :) xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Marnie! These ones are nectarines. . . the apples are not far off. Lovely dancing with you today. ox
Deleteahhh...sounds like bliss. Divine pics Rachel, divine.
ReplyDeleteBliss with a good dose of crazy chaos Brydie! xo
DeleteOh look at those sketches. Talented beyond measure.
ReplyDeleteThank you lovely! xo
DeleteOh lovely photos and words and light and leaves from your place Rachel. I am very interested in the fact that you have switched to home schooling, when I have just made a (partial) move away from it. I have tried to write about it recently but the words just wont flow. Perhaps they are best left alone for now x
ReplyDeleteI saw that you'd made the switch the other way Jane! It's something that we spent the best part of last year considering, for a whole host of reasons. After hours of researching and discussing and contemplating, I woke up on new years day and thought, let's just do this! So far, so good. xo
DeleteI really love your watercolour. It's seriously so beautiful. Nice to have you back around these parts, I definitely missed reading your succinct but dreamy snippets. I am also envious you are enjoying nectarines off a tree - they are infinitely better for having ripened on the plant right! x
ReplyDeleteIt's good to be back G. Blogging has a place that insta just can't fill! Nectarines warm from the sun and dripping juice are the best. xo
DeleteWe talk about home schooling and travelling around oz. Hopefully it will become a reality one of these days. Sounds like life is treating you well x
ReplyDeleteI have just discovered your sweet spot...love your jottings and especially your gorgeous leaf art. Beautiful blog!
