And so the year shifted again, with a starlit new year’s eve; the girls with star-painted nails and collars like angel wings. 2020 was a hard one. But there was gentleness there, and gratefulness too.

2021 is an open promise. I’ve not yet filled it with plans and goals, I’m taking my precious time, settling into it slowly.
Tonight there’s still a few glowing embers in the fireplace, the cold night is falling, and as I am reading to my oldest, Bilbo has just been reunited with his dear friends after much hardship.

And 2021, I do believe in you too.

Today we’ve packed our car with velvet dresses, woolens and a bunch of Christmas gifts, and now we’re headed towards the tiny town were K and me grew up, to celebrate Christmas with our family. The girls have been singing Christmas songs and eating tangerines in the backseat most of the way, and I feel incredibly grateful for being able to spend the holidays with my dear ones.

Merry Christmas friends, wherever you are in the world. I hope you will find some joy - and some peace, in these troubled times. 🌟

Happy winter solstice friends! Aren’t we all just racing towards brighter times, - like Hedwig and Luna here? 🌟

Our annual gingerbread cookie session. Complete with sticky fingers, flour-covered dresses and just a pinch of chaos.

This year I’m trying to lower my christmas expectations to a (more) reasonable level. I’m very much looking forward to family time, the fire crackling in the fireplace, my father’s cooking, the girls playing with their cousins, and walks in the woods of my childhood. But there will also be chaos, I know. Tantrums, tangles and tears. And I will try to breathe slowly, move slowly, with an open mind. And if I cannot, that is all right too, because I will gather my thoughts and try again, and again. Because this is christmas, too. 🤎

This beautiful bundle of universe visited me in my studio a little while ago. There was sunlight, crinkled sheets, loads of snuggles and it was all rather glorious. 🤎

Today though, I’ve had one of those days when my mind has been all over the place, reading about Russian ballet dancers and getting lost in the weird side of youtube. I’m also, ironically, working on reorganizing my routines and my workday.

I’m curious; what’s your biggest distractor? (Mine is definitely insta 🙈), and how do you deal with distraction, and find your focus?

Happy first Sunday of Advent, friends! 🌟

I’m curious; is the lighting of the candles (one each Sunday until Christmas) just a Scandinavian thing? Do you light Advent candles?
