A Splashing Good Time
Do you remember those days when you were young? When it didn’t matter how wet you got, every puddle was an invitation to splash, your clothes soaked, eyelashes clinging together and your heart full of joy!
Tending to the Garden
In my garden is where I find a connection to my food and an appreciation for the gifts of nature that make it possible for plants to grow. The sun, rain, bees and other insects, and the warm nights all contribute to the plentiful harvest.
Magic of Summer
August is the last magical month of summer. It feels like an old friend who is preparing to leave and I feel an urgency to spend as much time with them as possible, doing all the things we love!
For the Love of Summer Bugs
Have you ever taken a closer look at the world from a bugs’-eye-view? Summer is a great time to pause and marvel at the world of insects and spiders crawling on meadow plants and scuttling along the forest floor.

When we take the time to observe nature we can find so many similarities to our own lives and sometimes it can trigger a memory or lend us some wisdom.
