{this moment} - A Friday ritual. A single photo - no words -
capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary
moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember.
If you're inspired to do the same, leave a link to your 'moment' in the comments for all to find and see. Inspired by Soulemama.
Mmmmm.....I wonder what Reece is looking at. Have a lovely Friday Kim. xxoo
ReplyDeleteHe has found some branches that had been chewed by a little creature over the winter. He was taking a look at the teeth marks, then we search for animal poop...the verdict, a rabbit :)
DeleteLovely xxoo
DeleteAh, the last of mitten weather:-)
ReplyDeleteThis week our moment is sap… taking over the fridge. http://www.yellowladybird.com
Happy weekend!
Yes, we are slowly getting there, although the "snow" word was mentioned in the long range forecast for next week...sigh.
DeleteIs that snow still on the ground? Now what did Reece spy?
ReplyDeleteHave fun this weekend Kim.
You bet Tracey. It seems to really like us this year and doesn't want to go away :) He has found some branches that had been chewed by a little creature over the winter. He was taking a look at the teeth marks, then we search for animal poop...the verdict, a rabbit :)
DeleteSpring is just around the corner! Those hats and mittens won't be needed for much longer : ) Hope you have a lovely, warm weekend together!

It is, and we can't wait!
DeleteWhat a wonderfully inquisitive child! Just love him! Your pictures ooze curiosity. :-)
ReplyDeleteHere is our moment if you feel like stopping by!
It's been a heavy and intense week here, but happy amazing moments are always there to remind us that life is GOOD! http://familyfaithfoodfabric.wordpress.com/2014/04/11/this-moment-11/
Have a great week-end!

Happy Weekend!
Me too :) Thanks, hope yours is good too.
DeleteI was reading your comments to figure out what he was looking at. What a neat way to teach him about nature. I'm sure my boy will be most excited for the identifying scat bit of it. Why are boys so fascinated with poop?... ;) be well.
ReplyDeleteIt is so much fun, letting nature guide and teach us. All I do is ask a few questions here and there to get him thinking. So much fun. And yes, boys and poop go hand in hand :)
DeleteI still see snow and mitts! We has someone putting "presents" in the pool, a google search on scat revealed a raccoon!!
ReplyDeleteYou most certainly do, but we are at the end of it. It is warming up, snow is melting and the rain is coming to wash the earth clean. Spring is here!!!! Oh no, not fun.
DeleteWhat a fun investigation!
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend :)
You see him concentrating all the way to the top of his little head!
ReplyDeleteHaha, yes, much focus when he is trying to figure this stuff out :)
DeleteOh that's fun! Did you teach him those skills or did he learn that from the nature class he takes?
ReplyDeleteSo much fun! That would be a combination. The nature class is based on the Art of Mentoring, which we have been a part of for a few years. A big part of the mentoring is the art of questioning. There are different levels of questioning and you work within the childs/adults knowledge base to start and then move deeper. It is all very interesting and provides a wonderful framework for me to guide/teach these skills.
DeleteIt must have been good spotting to find the marks on the branch. Lovely to have a bit more variety to your landscape now for nature investigations. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteIt was a great one. The branches were actually chewed up quite high, it took him awhile to figure out how the rabbit got up so high. In the end he figured out that was how high the snow was :) And yes, I agree, I love this time of year, it is like uncovering the earth and seeing the wonderful surprises below.
DeleteGood job figuring it out friends! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Shel!
DeleteI can feel the concentration
ReplyDeleteIt was pretty thick :)
DeleteThis image is perfect in so many ways - how wonderful that your son is aware of the environment around him. Being able to spot these small signs whist out in nature makes the experience so much more rewarding. xx
ReplyDeleteNature is a pretty special place for us, and we love exploring and looking for things. Very rewarding indeed! xo
