Through other people's eyes, part 2

Recently we were blessed with a visit from some dear, old friends, who made an epic journey to Autumn Farm to help take care of our little family while I had my second dose of chemo.

Jay and Poe took care of us in the way that only old friends can, and we felt peaceful and loved.

Jay, as you will see if you have a look at her beautiful blog, takes the most gorgeous photos, and the photos she took of our little farm, of us, of the kids are like treasures to us.
 As I've said before, to see your life reflected through another person's art - through other people's eyes - is like a gift. Pearl and I were so so touched by Jay's words about her visit, and her beautiful photos, I wanted to share a few of her pictures, and also a link to her blog, so you can see and read for yourself.
Thank you Jay for the beauty and love and care you brought to us when we needed it most, and thank you for translating this through your photos. It is a wondrous thing...

  2. I went over and looked at all the photos. Now I feel I know you all better. It's a lovely place. The children are so lucky to be growing up there! And a straw bale house . . . how nice to be able to do what you want on your own land. Best wishes to all of you during this bad patch.
