Isn't nature full of the most amazing things?

A few weeks ago we went to dinner with some friends at their farm and Evie was given the most delightful birds nest which she had admired on their sideboard..... aren't nests just so amazing? Even with all the handling that Evie has given it, it is still sturdy and has stayed together! The beautiful, soft wool lining just makes me smile ..... making a home comfy is so important, even to the birds of the air!!



While we were away on holidays Evie also found this banksia seed pod (at least I think that is what you call it) and as we had been reading
Snugglepot and Cuddlepie (if you've never heard of these stories think antipodean Beatrix Potter!!) she was immediately taken with the bad banksia man's face and promptly made up lots of stories about him in great detail.....


I love imagination (and nature)..... long may it run wild in our house.
