“Spring: a lovely reminder of how beautiful change can truly be.” – unknown


I know spring has sprung because I’m eating Easter chocolates – even if they are from last year.




This week as I froze my feet taking pre-dawn pictures, I wondered why I take this same picture, more or less, over and over again. I realized that the answer was that it’s because it gives me a beautiful start to my day in which I have a better sense of perspective – that the world is so big and my worries are small. As Lao Tzu says “If you correct your mind, the rest of your life will fall into place.” He just left out that’s it’s an ongoing practice.
So I took the kids up to see the sunrise and they were moderately interested but more impressed by leaving handprints in the frost. 🙂


Activities of the week: nothing but net and shooting stars.
