And we have cosied in at home, only venturing out for the school run. We've needed a couple of quiet days... the past few nights have been tough... we've been battling a string of bugs, colds, coughs and chest infections and I've heard little voices calling for "Mama" almost every night this week. If I've been stirred from slumber only once in the night, its been a good night. Our Heidi-girl is going through a bit of a clingy phase right now, and if she had her way she'd have those little chubby arms wrapped round my neck all night long...
But there is something about the winter time that takes the guilt away from being cooped up indoors. Somehow it feels OK to spend your days pottering around your cosy house while the weather wreaks havoc outside, and we've needed that this week.
Winter has definitely arrived, and that's been evident on the #SavouringtheSeason Instagram hashtag this week too... the whole feed just fills me with happy appreciation of beauty. It is SO very nice to look at. Thank you so much to all of you who have been hashtagging away and joining me in savouring each season as it rolls around. Why not pop over to Instagram and take a peek?
It was really hard to pick out my favourites this week... so many lovely shots, but these were the ones that stood out for me. Why not head on over and follow these lovely ladies for a glimpse of real wintry wonderland...
On the blog post front, my favourite this week was this post by Karen at Let Kids Be Kids. She has written about their fungi walk turned deer hunt, and shares some of the classic excitement for children that autumn brings. It was a real autumnal post and, as we wave goodbye to my favourite season, one which I felt really highlighted all that nature has to offer at this time of year! You can go and take a look here.
So this week, the times have changed, and we're moving into winter mode... so link up all your wintry posts and lets celebrate all that this season has to offer - I used to think winter the ugliest of all the seasons, but I'm beginning to realise it has beauty all of its own - fresh and crisp and stark in its contrasts.
Link up your posts below, and don't forget to use the Instagram hashtag! And please, if you leave a post below, make sure you go and comment on some of the others! Appreciating each others posts is what this linky is all about after all!
See you next week!

ReplyDeleteIt is sad to see autumn go, but I do think winter has its good points too, even if it is just Christmas and snuggling up in front of a fire under a blanket. x
