The Magic of December {Everyday Beauty}

a blooming Christmas cactus

a singular snowfall

homemade chai tea

sinking into a novel

haircuts and morning sweetness

a face that is always pleased to see me

my spunky angel

handmade crowns

a favourite wreath

the sweetness of Santa Claus

found drawings (what celebration!)

thoughtful looks

first horseback rides

fresh air and Kelly green

moments like these

my self-assured little boy

the other half of my heart

baking gingerbread houses

 annual solstice bonfires

the warmth of a crackling fire

the quietness of Christmas

twinkling lights after bedtime

taking care of sister

taking care of baby

centrepieces

the ones you know you’ll re-read

a winter moon

the Christmas Day bloom of an amaryllis

the joy of gift-giving

awaiting his two front teeth

morning light through the window

new year’s treats

 

a place for thoughts.
