The sun may be shy today, but we can still take our walk, and talk of happy things, and laugh.
Let’s say hello to our favorite tree. As you rub your hand across the rough bark are you thinking what I’m thinking? Thank you for being the same today because I needed you.
There’s a face – or two or three –in this little neighborhood of ours who would want to know that we’re okay.
Give me eyes to see my own life from a higher plane.
Back at home, we have a gift that cannot be measured: family and love and a treasured routine of living every day so that we all might be here again another day, together.
Play and climb and laugh and be of good cheer! And let my heart enter into all of that with you!
Enjoy today the sweet rituals of home.
Home’s not merely
four square walls,
Though with pictures
hung and gilded;
Home is where
Affection calls –
Filled with shrines the
Hearth had builded!

Such beautiful pictures! On my farm almost all the leaves have fallen of the trees.

P.S. I love your daughters striped leggings!:)
Thank you, Mindy! My house sits on what used to be a large farm. It’s all now a little neighborhood, but the neighborhood has some old, pretty trees.

PS – She loves those leggings.
Lovely pictures!
It’s so nice to see your daughter playing outside. My daughter, who is 15, has been saying for years that we hardly see kids playing outside anymore, even in the summer. We love being out exploring in every season. You have a lovely home!!
I love the pictures of the trees! Our leaves are nearly all down!
Beautiful post ……
Oh….I love this post…just what I needed today! A perfect reminder to cherish the ‘today’ we have. Thank you, Lynn.
Beautiful photos, Lynn. Your entire post made me smile.
