Celebrating Beltane...

Winter already seems so very far away and yet the green everywhere seems too quickly to have taken over the forest and fields. This time of year is always one of suspended dreaminess for me: what month is it? what season are we in? And then comes May, my favorite month of the year... We waited until Far's home day and our school's May Fest to celebrate Beltane here at home with our traditional fire and clarifying of our intentions for the summer months.

 The kids each bundled up a little offering to burn and Soren and I made a list of things to be done this summer... It felt good.

 

 They are growing and changing just as fast as the seasons are flying by. It blows me away and I am trying so hard to hold onto the brief moments, embrace the change and move with them but it is so hard some days. I just want time to stand still.

 

Thankful for this silly little tribe of mine.
Welcome Spring! Embrace and let go all in one breath...
