This Moment - Cotton wool clouds


This Moment - Soule Mama

A single photo capturing a moment
A simple, special, extraordinary moment
A moment I want to pause, savour and remember


Some days the views in the morning surprise me. The hills look different everyday.

On Tuesday I awoke to this scene. Low cloud settling on the hills. "Cotton wool" was the thought that came into my mind.

When I was little, we used to make models of the countryside with hills, trees, rivers and little houses. And the winter ones had cotton wool to simulate the snow. This scene reminded me of those days and cotton wool snow.





This is the moment 
This is the time
When the momentum and the moment
Are in rhyme
Give me this moment
This momentous moment ...

This Moment - Soule Mama

Yesterday morning my son got confirmation into his chosen programme at University - it's a difficult programme to get into and needs higher than normal scores. He did so well in his school certificates - worked really hard.

I'm so happy for him and so proud of him too. He told me he was lucky - I told him his hard work made his luck.

We were having breakfast when the confirmation came through.  This is a moment I will never forget.

I hope you had an awesome Christmas. Each year the gifts under the tree grow even though my friends and I have agreed not to give each other gifts but instead to meet up and have a chat over lunch or coffee in the week after Christmas. Meeting up and chatting with friends is the best gift for me.

Each year we invite a friend over for Christmas lunch or dinner - someone who has no one to spend Christmas with. It's our way of spreading the joy.

This year the friend brought a very unusual Christmas gift for us, but one that's given us a lot of joy and amusement.

Happy New Year to all
