diary of a mama: jam drops + doilies

divider-new-1
In this photographic series “diary of a mama” I want to simply share inspiration and captures from my days with my children. Honouring the sacred work of homemaking and child caring. You’ve all heard the saying, “a picture speaks a thousand words”. My intention is for these images to fill your soul with nourishment and a deep knowing that the work you do in your home + raising your children is sacred.

    I love how your baby sets the table! So beautiful. Your kitchen looks such a warm and inviting place to be. Perhaps thats why such delicious things come out of it. Your home just looks filled with light and beautiful loving energy. Hope your week is beautiful 🙂 x

    Jam drops. One of the nicest things to make with little ones, and one of the nicest things to eat. We haven't made them for ages! P.S. I love your duck egg kitchen tiles. x

    Second photo down – gorgeous! Milly is looking like her own little person all of a sudden. Wool mattress is on my wishlist but I doubt we will ever be able to afford it. That ice cream looks delicious – I need to put ice cream maker on my birthday list for next year… x
