Nothing beats little treasures.









I looked up the other night to see my son had left me a gift, a small pebble, up high on the mantel.
He was tucked up in bed, so my gratitude had to wait, but it filled my heart and made me smile.

A little present left somewhere where he knew my eyes would fall.
Daily these treasures are  pulled from the depths of his pocket, and presented like gold with a smile and a kiss, telling tales of where he has been and whom he has seen.

As you can see, there are now many collections of his dotted around the house.
Small reminders of love, placed in the nooks and crannies of our everyday life.

His first school year is coming to an end tomorrow, and my boy is filled with words, and letters, and wild drawings of the sea.

His eyes are wide, his head is filled, and the hand that once needed mine is digging deep for treasure.

Butterfly cuts






Playing.

Here I sit.

Curious, repetitive fun,

My little ones with little hands will soon be by my side.

Playing.

Here we will sit.

Curious, repetitive fun.

One for the road.



These panels are the latest addition to the The Lacy Road Gallery.

One gold, one silver.

One male one female.

Suited and booted.

I don't want to give too much away about these, however they do tickle me.

Tomorrow night there is a fund raising event at my sons school. I was asked if I could donate a picture, feels good to be giving something back. 

Up to anything nice yourselves?

Happy weekend.
