It's fall here in Ohio, which brings lots of Autumn Blessings:
~the crunch of the leaves underfoot
~the smell of burning leaves
~caramel apples
~the aroma of 'anything' apple baking in the oven
~getting out the sweaters and afghans
~piling winter quilts on the beds
~hot apple cider with cinnamon sticks
~Starbucks "Pumpkin Spice Latte"(yum.....)
~Candy corn
~Pumpkins on the front steps
~Cornstalks on the mailbox and lamp posts
~Pumpkin Spice candles burning in the studio
~Shorter days
~A bit of a chill in the air that simply smells like "fall"
We watched Ella's soccer game last weekend. It was so nostalgic to see my 7-year-old
granddaughter playing, while her daddy coached her team. sigh. I got tears in my eyes as I looked at him standing there, coffee cup in hand, coaching his daughter: MY long-ago 7-year-old coaching HIS 7-year-old. Life....full circle once again~
Happy Fall~
