…the air is getting warmer. Spring seems just around the corner. The five of us are spending lots of time together, soaking up every minute of this precious family holiday. We are making frequent trips to our favourite cafe, and just loving it. I am even getting some quiet time to myself in the mornings while Rick takes the boys out to play. We are eating Crunchy Nuts for breakfast – our traditional holiday cereal. Pete is speaking more and more each day, which is so exciting. Meanwhile, Angus continues to astound us with his photographic memory, and Jamie has started to count from one to three. I am in constant awe of my wonderful husband, who everyday puts all of us before himself. I hope that our boys grow up to be like him – husbands and fathers who love their families abundantly and selflessly.

I always love the beginning of spring. :) Plus your photos always make me so happy. :D
Less than three weeks to go now…

he does sound like a wonderful man. it’s what we want for our children even more than for ourselves isn’t it? that role model.
Absolutely.

Sounds like your having some really good days of appreciation! :)
It’s been wonderful, Anna.

Sounds like a perfect holiday. Your husband seems like one in a million :)
He’s pretty awesome.

Aww, those last couple of lines gave me chills. :) Sounds like you have a great husband who takes very good care of his family. :) All little boys need a role model in their lives like that! Working in the customer service industry… I encounter so many people… and I can’t tell you how many times I am saddened by the way some parents speak & treat their kids. It’s terrible. :( so it’s very reassuring to me when I see… or read… or hear about great parenting! It’s an inspiration. And I keep those positive acts with me… It makes me even more eager to be a mom someday. :)
I’m glad you’re enjoying your holiday break! I hope the rest is just as, if not more, wonderful! :)
Cheers to you, Ronnie!
Holiday is wonderful, though I keep wanting to get more done than is realistic. :)

I’m glad to hear that someone else has traditional holiday cereal! Ours is Coco Pops, it’s so delicious that we’re only allowed it on holidays, and it kinda makes me want to holiday more often! Love your pics, there’s beauty in simplicity x
Ours is sometimes Coco Pops as well!

Hey Ronnie : ) Can’t wait to see what you have tomorrow for the Creativity Project. You are going to link to me and Sandra Jackson will be linking to you. Do you know what the theme is? I can’t remember so I am going to ask Scarlett to tell us. Love the pictures in this post. So pretty.
Thanks Becky for having me on board! Looking forward to it.

Adore your photos, Ronnie. They’re always so evocative.
Thank you Shoko, that’s so sweet of you.

I love it how just as our leaves are going to start turning, and our air is going to get crisper and cooler, somewhere down under it’s going to start warming up and coming back into full colour. magical.
I know what you mean. It’s awesome to be able to live vicariously through bloggers on the other side of the world…
Ronnie xo
There is always. such a earthy and natural atmosphere to your wonderful photos. You inspire me a lot!
Anna, that means so much coming from a talented photographer like yourself! Thank you for your kind (and sweet) words.
