Thanks for the relaxing update and mostly for the reminder - about how life is always speaking to us in quiet invitations all the time... the views we keep postponing, the peace we think we must earn, and the joy waiting just past our reluctance. Also, the reminder that presence isn’t passive. It often begins with the choices that we all make. They may be messy, imperfect, defiant of convenience. Like you carried your son up a hill with no socks and wrong shoes, and still found something sacred there. That’s life: inconvenient, heavy, and often worth the weight. Thank you again :-)
Warm greetings, my name twin! 😂 That bench is HUGEEE. Glad you made it there with the little one 👍🏻
I've been meaning to update my newsletter and I got to do that yesterday, Alhamdulillah. Been meaning to study for exams, now that's a different matter 🥲 the next two weeks is going to be a test.
The initial photo of the giant blue bench was quite deceiving! Seeing the ladder leaned against it and your son sitting on top really put it into perspective!! So glad you got to have that adventure ❤️
I've been meaning to get into the garden. Planting, garden bed prep, harvesting... So many tasks! I did some garden bed prep on Tuesday, just two hours almost killed me 😂 I was so exhausted 😂
Well done, two hours is a real chunk of time! 😃 I'm always surprised by the fact that it's possible to get quite a bit done in a short burst - even 5 or 10 minutes. But that's how I end up late to wherever I was going when I stepped outside the house 😂

And the bench is huge! You can see it from really far away. Now that I know it's there I look out for it from different spots in the village

Such a beautiful update thank you!! I was wondering about you !
I'm still alive! Alhamdulillah 😃
Wonderful hearing about your adventures!
You don’t realise how big the bench is until you see Y sitting on it!
You’re finally getting there with the house refurbishments. Will have to plan a trip out there soon 😀
I really enjoyed reading this so much! I loved all the light details and the remarks! :)
