One day early in June

 Resting guys

 

Enjoying our bees!

natural dyed curtains

inspecting the corkscrew hazel

King Of The Mountain

being like moths

attracted to light in every form

basking in a single gleam of light or a stray ray

loving wool

not eating it

just cuddling and nestling

while the mass oven cozies up our little home

 

quietly making

My youngest was sitting quietly by the yarn basket for a while. Finger knitting. Making jewelry for mama.

And mama was sitting quietly by night, drinking a glass of wine. Making a mobile of some of her small finds. And yes, it is a wasp nest. So delicate and perfect.

March

 Cold in the beginning ...

 Glowing in the end ...

 Full of small wonders in the middle ...

And big glowing super wonder full moon ...

And once in a while, the special cold northern spring low sun beam - and shadows!

 And craniums proudly brought home by my little guy from an nearby fox earth

I wonder ...

When my children is asleep - or at least lying in their beds trying to - I like to take a stroll in my garden. Not to pick up toys or weeding. Simply sensing the change of atmosphere. Wandering, smelling, touching, relaxing - and wondering ...

... if I could dye wool in the colours of the sky and the clouds ...

... if the doe in the meadow next to my garden is hiding her kid somewhere near ...

... if the lamb in the sky is lost or merely adventuring ...

... if I ever will be able to take a proper shot of this puppy of mine ...

... if the beauty and delicacy of tiny flowers will ever cease to amaze and astonish me ...

... if faries are riding the horses in the summer nights - when I'm not looking ...

... if drying oneself in a sun dried towel, with the scent of freshly cut hay, isn't one of the finest luxuries of summer ...

I hope you're wondering too!

absence & presence

Yes, I'm a bad blogger, guilty of neglecting this little space of mine. You see, it's the time of year that simply makes it impossible for me to take my eyes of what's happening - out there in the real world. Everything is in such a hurry, growing so fast and changing so rapidly that I might miss important things in the blink of an eye. Like last year, I need to take a break in order to suck it all in and let it take my breath away.
A pretty good reason for not blogging - in my opinion.

But in this quiet, late hour I thought I'd share a bit of the things that pleases my eyes right now (if there's still any stopping by to share with):

And totally unrelated - or perhaps not -  I've been thinking about things I'd like to blog more about, so I've decided to make another series. (I'm one of those poor devils lacking a TV, and consequently endless series of soaps and all that crap. I wonder if I could risk developing some sort of involuntary series discharge,  »seriesitis« or something, caused by insufficient (TV) series consumation?) - Anyway, I hereby announce a coming series at JardarMama:
