a day in the life of a latvian mom

Yesterday looked out the window and saw a fox crossing the dandelion field! Just like that — quietly walking through all the yellow flowers.

Of course, I rushed outside with my camera and waited for the fox to come closer. I sat there for probably 20 minutes, simply enjoying the view and the evening silence. But the wind was blowing from my side toward the fox… so she smelled me and decided to take another route instead. Smart girl.

Still, I couldn’t even be disappointed. The field looked absolutely beautiful covered in dandelions, glowing in the evening light. Sometimes I still can’t believe this field is actually our property. I love it so much.

I didn’t get the fox photo I hoped for… but on my way back home, I surprised something else instead.

Can you guess what it was? 🙂 Clue in the last picture!
