Our family life in the tropics. Lots of music, art, gardening, cooking, traveling, ponderings, and joy. Creating memories, traditions
and hopefully some humor. Trying to give back as well.

corner view~small things

It's the small things that matter.  It's the time we take to pay attention to details -- a handmade card, a compliment, a note, a smile.  Don't underestimate the importance of the small things.  In many ways, they are actually big things.

So true.
Is that your own lavender?

Very true! And I bet that lavender smells delicious!

So true. I surprised a colleague with some 'homegrown' daffodils and she was thrilled. It is indeed the little things.
I loved my lavender at the other house. I spread it throughout the house in vases. I must plant some at this new home.

Did you box this lavender? I have a huge patch of lavender and need to do something with it -- tell me what you did!
