it's raining again on the beaches of Sydney today...which i have to say part of me loves...
i had a *Make-it-Monday* project to share with you, but as it's the last day of school holidays
with the kiddo...i thought i'd share our morning...
rain or shine- having this on our doorstep allows everyone to get some space when we need it...
there is something wild & beautiful about the ocean in the rain...fresh water & salt water...
nature in a different light- the elements flying into your face, the wind, the rain, the warm air...perfect for a puppy & kids...
perfect for a mama who's again at the last day of school holidays for a while- a mama who loves having her house full of kiddos & noise...
pounding through water- with a crew in tow, when you could be snuggled up on the sofa with a cup of something hot & a movie reminds me of my childhood....
the fresh air, & the exercise, in the warm rain makes coming home all the lovelier...a hot shower to wash off the sand & salt water...a sleeping puppy at ones feet...kiddos in snuggling clothes...
i love that we can live in this moment with our kids, after living on the other side of the globe...after falling in love with the English countryside & the wonderful lifestyle of lakes & farmland that brought to our days...
this photo below- Sol with Miss.Lola- will forever make me smile...
a boy & his dog...
a rainy day on the beaches...
sandy salty skin & fresh air...
how blessed are they to spend their school holidays doing what others only dream about...
whatever nature throws at us- we will never take this for granted...
the Lucky Country...
happy monday whatever nature is throwing at you....
