Again, you are able to relate

Posted on Sun, 20 Oct 2019

Again, you are able to relate your feelings at the time well, but also that awareness now of your naivety and vulnerableness, and awareness from the distance of the happiness but shallowness of your understanding of each other at the time....

Posted on Sat, 19 Oct 2019

Walking with you through the

Posted on Mon, 14 Oct 2019

You bring the walk to life

Posted on Sun, 13 Oct 2019

You bring the walk to life for all the senses! And encourage to notice all the little things around, with interest and pleasure. On Saturday we were on the hills (also without rain!) and encountered a little group of cubs and their leaders, the...
