Quietude


As the holidays approach, I am feeling the pull to step back from this space for a few weeks to allow myself the time and space to sink into the season. I want to linger in the joy of the season, I want to soak up time with my little man, and I want to find solace in the coming darkness and let it hold, and comfort me. I will be popping in with my photos for the 52 Project, but other than that this space will be quiet.

This is the season of light and love, and I wish you that, and more, as you celebrate, in whatever way you do, this joyous season. Wishing you and your families all the best, from my home to yours. Happy Holidays!

    I totally get it. I've been feeling the same : Lots to say, but nothing really to say all at the same time. It's been such a hectic year, I'm feeling the pace getting slower, more peaceful and it is swallowing me in and I'm loving it.

    I'll be chatting with you via email for our New years plans. Can't wait to see you guys! xo

      I knew you would my friend. We have already slowed way down, and it feels good. My evenings are quiet, filled with cups of tea, candles and twinkle lights, and lots of reading and knitting. It feels right, and oh so good.

      Yes, I am planning away here, and will email you soon. Can't wait!

    A great time of year to pull back and just soak in family time, your winter celebrations, and just life eh? I'm doing the same thing right now.
