I realised that so much of what I write about it is because of something I've seen, or want to capture, or when I can't find the right words, I'll use a picture.

Today is the 5th birthday of my blog, and I was going to take some celebration photographs, but instead I found myself pouring over the photo archives.
driftwood
which told me a huge amount about my blogging over the years,
roses
there are a lot of pictures of roses, of quilts and of cake
footprints in the sand
of exploring 
tissue lantern
and celebrating
socks
and crafting that I've been inspired to make.
friends
but none of it would be there if it weren't for all of you.
thank you.
You are five? Many many happies to you my friend.
