Afternoon delight

guestroom-1
I love the afternoon light in my house. Especially in this room, it pours in and eases even the hardest of days. I don't get to spend enough time in this room, so I decided in the two months i have left in this house to move more of my son's playthings into this room..now we can both "work" and I can take advantage of the haven I have right here.

blue...

bluevase
Daydreaming a lot lately of colors and textures...clearing old spaces to make way for new ones.
I love the idea of blue walls the color of deep sky...like this house in Arequipa.
This post is very inspiring.

For you...

Happy Mother's day...this is what I would put in your bouquet if I could...

My Father wrote to me a Happy Mother's day email yesterday and said "You are doing a wonderful job. Practice makes perfect, it is said. Sometimes I am sure you wonder how to do something or just how you did do something - and then you look at the young one who all the doing is for and the proof is before your eyes. Not exactly sure the precise steps in the process, and yet, LOOK AT THAT! Good job, if you do say so yourself."
I thought that was lovely and words worth sharing.

Enjoy your day wherever you are.
