Hello my sweet friends! I hope you have been keeping well!
We have been away at our cottage, trying to squeeze every
last bit of what’s left of the kiddies summer break…which is
unfortunately coming to an end. I have been trying to focus
on the present and really enjoy the now; not so much
worrying about a “to do” list, but just creating in my own way.
I have been having an internal battle in my heart with
wanting to truly enjoy the little time I have left with the kiddies
before they head back to school and this crazy‘I need to’ keep up with the blog world
which tells me that my Fall decor should already be up.
In all reality, I don’t want summer to end and have never
understood the need to rush through the seasons.
Don’t get me wrong, Fall is my favourite season. Not only was I born in the Fall,
but there is something so majestic about the changing landscapes that truly inspire
me to create. I am definitely looking forward to bringing new and creative ideas.

But for me, right now, the gardens are
still dressed in their beautiful colorful gowns…
still dressed in their beautiful colorful gowns…
I can still paint under the shade of a
tree while a warm breeze caresses my hair…
The butterflies are still dancing, and our kiddies
are still exploring the cool waters of the creek.
In my world, summer is still lending its warmth
and I don’t want to push her away, not just yet.
How about you? Are you ready to say farewell to summer?
Hope to see you later on tonight at The Inspiration Gallery.
much love,

I battle with those issues on my small scale, also. I don’t want to operate my blog like a retail store that must start selling clothes a season before they’ll be used. And I don’t. (Hence I just now shared my summer potting bench.) But I also worry I’ll be the only one still celebrating summer when everyone else has moved onto fall. The last one to the party, so to speak… For what it’s worth, I follow your blog because it’s beautiful to look at and from the heart, not because I’m looking for the latest Halloween decor. I love knowing your children come first and you’re wringing every moment of summer joy from this moment. It reminds me to do the same. There are many kinds of inspiration, and your spirit inspires me. Thanks!
