A week ago we went on a little adventure by boat train and car. It was a Noah and Grandma and Auntie day. We all had so much fun. Sometimes little adventures not far from home are the best kind.
Then we took the little ferry across to Fell Foot Park from Lakeside.
So…
and Grandma did a fantastic job at rowing. We even sang ‘Row row’ too.
Then we took the little ferry back and the steam train from Lakeside to Haverthwate.
Early mornings and branches.
Breathing in ordinary moments.
Crisp air fills my lungs and frost crackles underfoot.
Looking up at silhouettes in the sky.
Shadowed by the night sky.
Soon to be flooded in daylight

Hope Over Fear
Reminding myself that amidst uncertainty
I can still choose hope over not knowing what’s next
Hope over fear
Hope over shame
Hope over negativity
Hope amidst challenges
That it’s light that dispels the darkness
Light is life giving
It’s where the magic happens
and new ideas
become more than just dreams
Where the sparks of imagination fly
and old patterns become new paths
Interwoven into who we are

Riding home
through puddles
Mornings with
a crispness in the air
Smelling like autumn
already
Leaves leaving patterns
like little tree paths
on the ground
Old houses
Greet me with a
welcoming smile
All the cracks
like hidden pathways
Transport me to
times gone by
The smell of wood fires
takes me back
To childhood evenings
Roasting chestnuts
in the embers
Watching Dad raking
fallen leaves
All the rustling
reminds me of
Hedgehogs
And autumn walks in the woods
Watching squirrels chase
Each other from branch
to branch
Oh the delights of autumn
When the trees put on
their best show
The best symphony
of many colours
ochre reds, auburn
golden sunbeams

and I haven’t posted in so long..
Today looked like this..
Some snapshots of a wonderful day off spent with my sister, nephew, Dad, Gran and Auntie.
For me days out like this are so refreshing. I loved capturing some little moments as spring begins.
I never tire of spending time here.
Please don’t loose your wonderOf the small
But beautiful moments
And remember that you are His
And He is yours
Who conquered the grave
for you
And set the stars in the sky
Just because
And brought heaven down to earth
Scattered wildflowers in meadows
To wander through
And to enjoy
The butterflies dancing amongst
in the late evening light

Took a walk in the woods this afternoon and was captivated by the beauty of the bluebells.
Sometimes it’s so good to take a moment to crouch down and appreciate the little things.. Picture taken on my way home from work earlier today. 
Sometimes I like to write.
