earlier than early

If I have an appointment to make, I try to do it in the predawn hours, so that it doesn't impact my schedule with Snowdrop. As a result, we were up so incredibly early today that I almost felt as if I were about to take a trip on one of those obnoxiously early flights.

We didn't eat breakfast until after my appointments and that felt a bit strange, too.

In all, an odd beginning to a gorgeously warm and sunny day.

And you know if it's Monday, this puts Snowdrop right at the farmhouse and that's truly wonderful as I've missed playing with her here.

Yes, she seems older! Every week propels her closer to a new stage of development and today, I let her show me what she has been up to when I was away.

There was a mutual adoration moment to observe as well...

And since the day just couldn't get any nicer, we went out for a bit so that Ed could eat his lunch, Scotch could eat her bread and Snowdrop could again display her utter love for all the living things here at the farmette.

Willow play, too, remains a favorite..

And though she isn't about to take steps just today, Snowdrop truly does look impressive  up on her two solid little feet (even as her face says -- I am not that confident yet!)

Very impressive. And happy.

As am I -- it's so good to be back!

I return Snowdrop to her home. I linger for a bit. It's lovely to see her side by side with her mom.

I come back to the farmhouse after the sun has set, but then, we fell back this weekend and the sun sets at a very early hour.

  1. Snowdrop's gaining balance by the day... must feel really great to stand on grass in bare feet. Wait til she can chase after the chickens!
