Women

I spent a lot of time with women, it’s something I enjoy. I am quite feminine I guess, it’s in my blood.

I have also noticed that so many of us women are full of self critique, don’t get me wrong some is necessary, as it brings change and growth. But a lot of it is not, it’s due to preconceived ideas from another generation or time, it’s a parents voice in the back of your mind, it’s a an ideal or idea not our own that we regularly put on ourselves with no reason.

So in 2017 I decide to take some of the wonderful woman I am surrounded with and show them how I see them. To take them back to all of our roots, to nature with no critique, no where else to be but content inside your own skin and surrounded by love, self love and a whole heap from me too!

So over the coming months I will start sharing some magic, the honest kind no hidden tricks or gimmicks just women wrapped in love and bathed in sunlight.

I hope to share some stories too, ordinary and extraordinary ones neither one more important than another all a tribute to the everyday successes of women.

This month has drawn to a close all to soon, I feel so unready to move fully into this year. Wishing for more long summer days with late nights and beach visits followed by slow mornings filled with cuddles, approching each day as a blank canvas, filling it with life and joy.

This year brings the knowing of school and routine. I know I will miss you and I know you will miss each other. I know we will find ourselves short of time some days to say and share all we wish.

It also bring the unknown, with kinder on the horizon. I don’t know what change this will bring, I just feel it is not slower days but faster ones, filled with growth and change.
These things aren’t bad things, but they remind me of the lost time spent staring into a screen or feeling frustrated and overwhelemed by the siuation, where I should have just held you a little longer, kissed your nose one more time, on that day we will never get back. As my days of being at home with you both full time fade all too fast and as much as I love and revel in your growth and curiosity, your enormouse imaginations your both becoming more you each day. I already miss what is not yet lost with the knowing it will happen without my knowing until after.
