Waldbücher! Kinder brauchen Bewegung! Am besten an der frischen Luft. Im Moment ist das leider durch die Ausgangsbeschränkung nicht so einfach möglich, aber man darf zumindest noch in den Wald, was wir ab und zu gern in Anspruch nehmen. Bisher haben wir auch nur positive Erfahrungen gemacht, was das Einhalten der Abstandsregeln angeht. Waldbücher, die uns das Leben des Waldes näher bringen, sind hier immer gern gesehen. Sie schärfen die Wahrnehmung und die Achtsamkeit gegenüber dem Lebensraum Wald und lassen uns Bäume in einem andern Licht erscheinen. Heute möchten wir euch einige schöne Waldbücher vorstellen. Vielleicht ist auch für euch ein schöner Buchtipp dabei.

source Life has been especially difficult for me in the past few weeks as you all know. In fact, life has been difficult for the past ten plus years. I have had so much responsibility caring for elderly parents. The constant doctor and hospital visits. The frightening middle of the night phone calls. The inability to have any kind of life of my own. While I accepted this responsibility gladly, it does take it's toll. I have experienced many a sleepless night, many panic attacks and the overwhelming fatigue that comes with all of the perpetual stress. source While I will never stop missing my parents, nor will I stop being concerned about my Aunt's ill health, it's time for me to move forward with my life. I should not feel guilty about pursuing happiness. I have done my job. It's time to close my eyes at night and dream sweet dreams without fear over a middle of the night phone call. source It's time to start enjoying favorite pastimes once again. By the way, all of these illustrations are by Susan Wheeler. I have always loved her art work. Her scenes just take me to a cozy, homey place and make me feel happy. source Life is a gift. It's important to enjoy each moment of it. It's really not a selfish thing, because when one is happy it's impossible not to spread that happiness around. source Happiness does not cost a penny. We can find happiness anywhere. It's our happy attitude that changes everything. source I am being kind to myself. Giving myself time to heal. Time to refresh and renew my soul. I am choosing to be happy and my goal is to ... source spread this happiness around! Seasonal Sundays Come on Bentley ~ let's go get comfy on the sofa and watch season one of the Mary Tyler Moore Show on dvd. It's your Aunt Robin's favorite show, and mine too! Big Texas Hugs, Susan and Bentley

Hi Crafters, I won this lovely CD-Rom recently at Allsorts Challenge. The images are so cute and have matching papers and sentiments so I have been making some cards with it and here is one of them. The CD Rom is called Holly Pond Hill and the image, papers and sentiment are all taken from it. I have just used a frame die from my stash, some organza ribbon and a brad to embellish it. Challenges I'd like to enter: CD Sunday Plus Challenge - #20 ATG A Bit More Time To Craft - #101 ATG Thanks for joining me today, see you again soon. Lorraine xXx
