weekending


this weekend
we girls
welcomed march with cold blustery days
and kept the home fire burning

the hens figured out they have a new place to call home

there was a friend's birthday party
and a visit from beeba
complete with strong coffee and french toast
a paint-your-own bird house kit for Claire
(and a golden raspberry plant for mama)
always bearing gifts, my mama

lots of garden dreaming these days
whatwherewhenhow........

I went through Claire's stash of spring/summer clothes for the year
(we are now officially at the end of our hand me downs- eek!)

I've been eating up wendell berry's hannah coulter
thinking I need to read my way through all of his stuff

      indeed. I have purchased so few things for her myself and get quite excited about new bags of hand me downs. looking forward to planting the raspberry soon when papa returns from a trip and we move around some fruit trees/shrubs.

    running out of hand-me-downs is scary! we'll be running out of them for the little miss soon and i'm bummed.
