I love the expression of pure exuberance! There's nothing like a child who's truly experiencing and exploring. So glad there are still people in the world who allow kids to do what kids are meant to do.

the color of spring
Here in Maine, I'm beginning to see the first colors of the season. There's the yellow of the spring chicks in our kitchen. There's the amber of the maple syrup we're boiling. And then there's the white, white, white of the inevitable almost-predictable first day of spring snowstorm. ...
I love your description of being familiar with the land, and even well-acquainted with specific trees. As a former farm girl who's been uprooted to town, I can fully relate to your love of the land.

My mom is a fabulous sewer, and although I am active in other crafty hobbies, so far I have not followed in her sewing footsteps. Lately I've been feeling little urges to step into the sewing/quilting world. These fabrics are inspiring me to take the plunge!
