~ Christmas Squirrel

{& quite probably my best present! i climbed chairs & bookshelves to get this footage, he was out there for a good 20 minutes searching for nuts in quite a heavy snowfall, it was so victorious when he finally found this one & ascended the tree, carrying it in his mouth! what a lil cutie! i love squirrels!!!}

~ when the sun glows golden,

When the sun glows golden,
tinging the sky with a lullaby{crowning treetops before evening's lingering song}


deer folk appear here in fields, backyards & even parking lots,
how lovely!
a little shopping with Mum
& our baby gosling almost grown ~ though he still makes the high small peep-peep sound as if he were tiny

this week has been {among many, many other exhaustive necessities.. . watching aerial yoga, & some georgian ballet moves

also really loving this painting window! {i wouldn't mind one myself :)

hearts,

~ matters of the heart.. .

pink peonies in the shops

&

our wild Canadian Geese 

while watching Nanny McPhee Returns & Lassie on repeat :)

{& for Sunday's ~ the Living Scriptures - Journey to the Promised Land,

 The Greatest Adventure Stories from the Bible -Noah's Ark,

& of course, beloved Pollyanna!}

~ when the heart soars,





alongside riverbanks

a gentle reprieve,

this weekend;

was the warmth of a gentle reprieve,

collecting hope,

& a family, journeying

{for the days are long & filled with toil}

1. re·prieve - riˈprēv/

   verb ~ a temporary relief

~ my sister's geese,

 

& the gates at Princeton

~ doorways, {hither & thither}

 

a long & exhausting {most doubly so!} week,

although smiles came in the form of a welcoming sunset,

my sister's sketches of Gussy~boy,

gorgeous lilac toned organic dog treats

& peering through new doorways

 

as always, hearts & starshine!
