Rain and Sunshine likewise to a little person, the hot summer rain no impediment. No problem. No bother. His legs podgy and step to siding. Nappies making cowboys of them all. Stumbling away from the words jersey and shoes. Arms alight for balance. Unbalance all she has known. Of no concern. Bodies poised to drop forward or backwards. Escape foremost. Laughing.
Sat on arms. Slumped in elbows. Cuddled in pillow bosoms. People as wall paper. Surroundings. People as Chairs. Beds. Or brooming along the floors.
Great – grandfathers eyes.
Have a lovely day.
Love celi.

so wonderful to see the sight of natural warmth. We are burning wood to keep warm at this time!
The pyro in the family is lighting the fire in the evenings – poor old John is farming back in Illinois in -10f . I feel bad for them.
Happy New Year Cicilia. Beautiful Post as always.
Thank you – new year is on the way!
Adorable! Beautiful! Precious! Cherish & Treasure! Thank you for sharing it, Celi.
Happy New year in your homeland Celi…lovely to see the joy and happiness in your pictures…love from Coromandel..X
Yes – thank you – we will be back in wellington for new year.
How sweet, life through the eyes of a little one. It’s a big refresher on how to see the world anew.
Great-grandfather’s eyes… that is what ‘immortality’ means. XO
Yes – I suppose it does!
Beautiful, thank you!
What a beautiful child and that she has inherited her great-grandfather’s eyes! He lives on! These photos are especially beautiful today C. Especially when we are all craving summer so much! What are those orange beauties on the tree? Nectarines?
I love that old gate!
Plums! And great grandad is still alive ! I also love the gate and the mechanism for opening it.
‘nappies make cowboys of them all . . . ‘ That gorgeous and loving comment will be oft repeated in this household . . . . yep, with your name alongside . . . . . *smile* my garden has hundreds upon hundreds of both blue and white agapanthus madly blooming also . . . . and the crepe myrtles have gone crazy . . . .
Word poems, picture poems, little person poem; all-alive and blooming. Beautiful you and yours!
It looks as if everyone is having a wonderful time!
Well great grandfather had beautiful eyes. Are you feeling renewal being home and all?
Ah, the colours: the sky, the fruit, the flowers, the eyes, the blooming cheeks… What visual richness you have around you, Celi. The happiest of Happy New Years to you and your dear ones.
New year is on it’s way
It was lovely toddling along there with you ♡
Kisses
That beautiful face and expression looking through the glass is priceless and could win prizes. I was awestruck by it. Your photos are always wonderful but that one moved me. I’m so delighted for you and the warm weather must feel wonderful to you. I’m so sorry your John is freezing his tush off. It looks bad in the Midwest and East. We only got a night of solid ice. Counting our blessings.
Not good at the farm – I cannot help fretting
I understand. I’ll say some extra for them.
