Just as it should be….
by Growing Flowers
Images of the day. I couldn’t stop taking photos of this sweet and quiet day. It was just Kaya and I for the most of the day and there was lots of reading going on. We lazed around on our sage and overstuffed couches. The sun streamed through, it was a perfectly rejuvenating type of day. I dragged Kaya out for a short walk – since a labor was going on. I couldn’t get too far away from my car.
And it was blustery. We kind of jogged backwards against the wind, our hair whipping around. Scarves and hoods on.
Kaya pointed out that we could get our vitamin D from the sunny couches instead. And I think she is correct. Can you get vitamin D through a window pane? I hope so.
We made popcorn and potato leek soup – and we read some more. I am reading Walden by Henry David Thorough and thoroughly fascinated by the timeless observations. I love his quiet words and endless description.
Treska came home and as it finally got dusky and dark in the house we popped into bed, all three of us – elbow to elbow. Popcorn in the middle and watched Cormac McCarthy’s “All the Pretty Horses.”
So lovely.
A dinner of salad, salmon and red wine was ready as we crawled out of the “other world” we found ourselves inhabiting. Perfection. A day that was just as it should be. And exactly what I needed.
Deine Fotos sind einfach sagenhaft schön, liebe Kiersten!
