Spring!

 The Calathea of my Eldest blossoms!

And Youngest loves the smell of Freesia

She spins her braids

mostly singing
and pwnz me in memory game

Soft bloom and grace

and with this still
I give Alessandra Taccia my regards
(the yellow cloth is by her)

"I love your paintings, Alessandra! Calming and peaceful."


With love, to all of you,
Ariane. Rose

From Martha to Maria

From Martha {action} to Maria {contemplation}
:

my eldest got an infection of the middle ear

first left

later on the right side

Today, she's doing better, is well balanced
still at home, not at school

phew!


I hope you are all doing fine and find
the balance of 'Martha' and 'Maria',
dear friends

Love, Ariane. Rose

Snowy Easter walk (Schnede 2018)

Last weekend, at Easter, heavy snowfall surprised us

I love the sound of silence

Round and back

til dusk

The next day

sweet breakfast with the kids
and signs of Spring

To say with Erich Kästner:

(...) It's every year the same procedure,
but again it's like the first time

Hope you are all doing fine.
Love, Ariane


PS: The weather forecast tells us there will be
21°C this weekend! in Hamburg!
