just a wee bit furthur

This is where our family gathers for dinner each night. Our summer meals are eaten out under the vast sky and the stars above. It is here that we hear the summer breeze whisper sweet summer messages into our ears.

Earlier this week, I found myself alone…with only one child. This is a very unusual predicament to find myself in, however, one on one time with each of my children is something I crave. I took it to be a special gift that lay after a very trying day. Learning to let go in the moment, while what is before you is turning into exactly what you need can be so hard sometimes.

Bella and I sat under the sky, and watched as it transitioned from dusk to dark, with only candles and starlight lighting up our time together.

We played a few games of “go fish” and read some books; we chatted and were a bit silly.

This week I have found myself wandering lots of new places, both within myself and outside as well. The summer breeze as of late seems to be whispering messages of rapid change and stepping forward. Transition. I feel that now is the time to wander a bit furthur out of my own comfort zone, to reach new places that will find me in a new, clearer, place of self. I know that whenever I choose to wander a bit furthur from where I am, I come back with a gift I would not have found had I not taken the time to push myself just a wee bit furthur.

Cheers! To wandering!
