This Moment :: Dessert Before Dinner

{this moment} – A Friday ritual. A single photo – no words – capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember. ~Soule Mama

Hello there!


Welcome! My name is Sonia and I am an avid knitter, mama of 2, and local yarn shop owner. Join me as I write about running a small business, exploring my creative pursuits, reading, parenting, gardening, and whatever else strikes my fancy.

Animal, Vegetable, Mantel. 🦚🌱🐆🌿🦌 Before the kids got sick, I had repotted several plant babies and bought a couple new additions. As the sick days added up, I played around with placement, seeking the biggest impact of plant happiness. My living room is starting to look like a jungle, and it’s just right. 💚 . Special thanks to @jodicelliott for the pilea pup and to @lizgrantdesigns for the milk glass container it’s staying in!
Happy Easter-Passover-Sunday-Spring day to you, friends! I hope that whatever your day holds it’s just right for you. . As for me: I’m feeling hopeful after some family time in the fresh air. Plus there are no fevers so far today, and there’s an abundance of cake for afternoon snack. Things are looking up! . Anyone know what this flower is that I found blooming at the edge of the woods?
My walk with Mango felt especially sweet this morning. My body needed it all: footsteps in the damp gravel; the cool, leaf-scented air; a chorus of lively redwing blackbirds; this trail of puffy clouds against a brightening blue sky. ☁️🌤🌳 I’ve been tending to sick kiddos this week and was feeling a touch of cabin fever. I plan on having all the windows and doors open today to chase out whatever sinister fever/stomach bug has infected my children. While I’m at it I’m going to cut all my tulips and bring them inside and start plotting what to plant in the garden this year. #morningswithmango
Life’s a beach. In this case, a moody, blustery, sparkly beach perfect for exploring tide pools, running free, taking deep breaths of salty air and driving wee trucks.
This week our local rivers and waterways have swelled and crested, spilling over into fields, roads, parks and homes. The paths I walk each morning are under feet of water, a current of mud-brown swirling above packed gravel and green grass. Nature never fails to inspire awe.
What a weekend with these special ladies. ❤️
