a day in the life of a latvian mom

I woke up and opened my eyes.I couldn’t believe what I saw!I got up and walked to the window…And there it was — a foggy winter morning. The girls were still asleep, so I grabbed my camera and rushed outside. Okay… not before putting on my down coat, scarf, hat, and mittens! 🙂

Today reminded me how deeply nature’s wonders make me happy. How could I ever move back to the city? I’ve been given this beautiful opportunity to live close to nature — and I want to live it fully.

January was a tough month for us — full of colds, coughs, and chills. My husband still isn’t feeling right.

But I believe this winter sunshine will bring healing and happiness.

It’s always easier to feel good when the sun is shining — and viruses aren’t fans of sunlight either!

One last picture… and now I’m heading back inside.

Thank you, Mother Nature, for today’s sunshine.
