this morning

This morning the girls slept in after a late night at the farm welcoming home the honeymooners.

This morning there are fresh flowers from the garden on my kitchen table, brought in by my husband.

This morning Emma is at the barn, learning that sometimes your responsibilities come before play.

This morning, there is a breeze coming through my kitchen window.

This morning there is homemade jam and soft butter.

This morning I am kind of looking forward to a day of laundry and clotheslines, tidying and dishes.

This morning, there is a young rooster testing out his new-found voice from the side yard.

This morning, everyone is home and heading to the stream to cool off. 

This morning was just the morning I needed.
