Real Love
Yesterday we celebrated my parent's 40th wedding anniversary. Very early in the morning, we surprised them with a breakfast in bed. We brought them champagne, lots of delicious food, served on china that all their grandchildren painted and decorated and in the evening we went to dinner with the whole family. It was a wonderful celebration.
Today it was gray and wet outside. It was raining and the wind was howling around our house. But that didn't matter; We had nowhere to go. In our pajamas we played and crafted. Chris build with lego with the little ones, giving me the chance to finally learn to interpret some puzzling instructions in Burda that I used to skip, doing things my own way. In our pajamas we enjoyed the smell of the many spring flowers in bloom that were a present on my birthday, from people that know me so well. In our pajamas all five of us danced to Gilbert O'Sullivan.
I hope your weekend was as filled with real love as ours was.
My name is Karin. I sew, cook and
take pictures. I tell stories. I dream. I love books, fashion, hot
baths, conversations that make me re-think my ideas and opinions. I
fantasize and realize. And above and beyond all, I am mama to
Lucas, Sarah and Olivier.
