About a week ago I shared that there was a project I was working on... ☺️
-
I thought of this idea when I was driving a few weeks ago, and there was no doubt in my mind that this project would bring everything I love and am passionate about – being a storyteller, a person who journals, an artist, a maker- and allow me to offer to the universe in the shape of a book.
-
From the Core of Mother Earth in the materials, and from the core of my heart and craft...

Just a mama in love ❤️

In a way, creating the reading closet showed me that even if their room was that little space, as long as it was full of love and magic, it would be perfect.
Close to 3 years of these two room sharing, and it’s been the most wonderful thing ever ✨💛

A little reading closet 📚✨can’t wait to see it this evening when the lights will really shine. That’s where all bed time stories will be read from now on. 💛

Inspired by the wonderful @bonjourmoon (who you should absolutely follow - if you already don’t- for the absolutely most beautiful and uplifting content ever). -
Happy Day ✨

The view of our sweet pergola, no matter the season, is always so magical. The hanging outdoor lights in the winter especially, really light up the whole space with the light that reflects off the snow. Do you think my husband will let me put an outdoor Christmas tree there? Doesn’t hurt to ask right? Haha. Also, please tell me I’m not the only one who will have to brush snow off my outdoor furniture 🙈🤣 #reallife

Pretty much in love with this wall ❤️🌿... and I really need to fix that light 💡🤣. It’s a quiet season for me on this platform, but I’m dreaming and working on projects that I cannot wait to share and put out to the universe. I feel creativity flowing, and that’s exciting. Currently though, cuddling my runny-nose-almost-three-year-old on my lap as he watches Hotel Transylvania, and me, on wipe duty; always “Mama” first ❤️ hope you’re all having a lovely week so far! -

The late moments of this mother’s nights; going in to tuck and kiss my sleeping babes one more time before I go to bed myself. When did they grow? At one point, this room had two cribs and a nursing chair. Middle of the night visits were more frequent, and checking on them before I went to bed required some ninja skills to make sure I was sssuuuupppper quiet. Now, there is a bunk bed in this room, and the children in those beds are no longer babies. Penelope will smile in her sleep when I caress her cheek, and the scent of Oliver’s always sweaty neck when he sleeps is the balm for my heart. No matter how the day went; whether it was hard, busy, stressful, joyful, wonderful... I always reach perspective when I stand here looking at them. I have won the lottery. -

The house was quiet and when I went to check on them, I found them doing this. Reading books together in the bed they made on the floor of their room. Melting.... melting!! 💛 -

The view of my Friday night. I often wonder what my neighbours think when/if they catch a glance of me through the window, lighting candles and sitting down to write in my kitchen table, in the company of no one else but myself. I smile at the possibility of their thoughts, because at the end of the day it doesn’t matter, but it sort of warms my heart to think that they would notice the corny neighbour who has dates with herself, because I do. In a way, lately - and always really- I feel like I have to unapologetically be the sentimental human that I am, because it easily shows those who are and who are not comfortable with that, which is the opening to a new friendship, interesting conversation, or to the respectful walking away and acceptance that I don’t have be friends with the whole world. Do any of you feel the same? It sounds selfish putting it in words, but I think it’s the most honest way to be honest, no? Anyway, just thoughts from the heart of this corny lady, who is sitting in front of the view, having a cup of tea and a romantic date with herself...I also missed the last @moon.well circle so I need a little magical ritual in my life ✨💛 Happy Friday!

A little dress rehearsal before tomorrow ❤️

As a lover of nostalgia, having them choose to wear their elephant costumes again this year, makes my mama heart so happy. •new blog post, link in bio•
