Falling into Fall
I wandered outside the other day to appreciate the beauty of fall, and to hunt for a lost pair of shoes. I’m so glad I took my camera, because I had no way of knowing that later that day the wind would sweep in and carry most of the leaves off the trees. I love my neighbor’s tree. My children spend much of their time in her yard.
And the carpet of leaves! What a sight!
Ah, yes, the shoes!
My heart sighs. What a season!
Then the children came home from school, the wind picked up and the clouds moved in, and the fun began!
Rides in wheelbarrows…
Leaf angels…
really deep leaf angels…
Leaping into piles…
and hurling them to the wind.
As a mother, I ask this question:
How can I bear to call them in to do their homework?
You take such good pictures!! I am horrible with the camera. We even bought a nice one thinking that would solve my problem- nope! And you have such a nack for decorating-I always love coming to your house to see what you are up to. see you tonight!
