But it turns out that its not about Grand Plans at all. It's about the joy of going back to a more flexible, unstructured life with time to spare for the small things.
We sat in the garden together, early this morning before G went to work and while the children were still in bed, drinking coffee and listening to the chickens potter around. A formation of geese flew overhead, so low that we could hear the swoosh of air from their wings. I watched a caterpillar crawl up the lilac tree and we talked about books.
special moments are often the unexpected ones x
ReplyDeleteA lovely way to spend a morning. I fancy some of that hazelnut flavouring!
ReplyDeleteIt's the little things, eh?
ReplyDeleteSounds lovely, especially accompanied by coffee with flavoured syrup! I love maniacally achieving things when family schedule allows, but downtime is often under-rated and rather fab too.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a blissful start to the day! Lucy x
