Changing of the seasons

Summer is coming to an end and all over nature I can see the signs of changing seasons. The green leafs look aged with rims of gold. The days are greeted with sweaters and ends with  hot cups of tea under blankets. 

I don't mind the change, in fact I love seeing the new colors - berry red, mossy green, chocolate browns. I'm excited for leather boots and soft scarves, but on the other hand this change of season leaves an ache in my heart... nothing terrible of course - unless you count sending your first baby to school. Yes that is right she is my tiny baby wearing 6 year old clothes, learning how to swim, getting pierced ears... where has the time flew to?

I have one week left to enjoy summer, but more importantly HER at home. Hope you have a great week too :)

Lying in bed would be an altogether perfect and supreme experience if only one had a colored pencil long enough to draw on the ceiling

I just love this time of the year, and although no one here goes to school yet, I can't help but treat our family to fresh new school supplies. I've been working on a project to store some of our coloured pencils and will share it with you later this week.

Hope you have been well,
see you soon
