Good afternoon Maria sweet,
ReplyDeleteIt's evening in Rotterdam, I'm curled up on my blue couch, keeping my teas next to me and my laptop in hand. I'm going to read your inspirational words for the second time!
Sending flowers and bird songs your way to BrighTen and LighTen up your Sunday (ours has been grey and blue). I certainly believe that April showers bring May flowers.
Love Saskia xxx
The colors in that last picture are just stunning!
ReplyDeleteA beautiful post and nature study photos to celebrate the arrival of spring
