my girls started school last week and since that last Monday I feel as if the days are just flying by, every one is too short, but within all that I can still find my space, just need to remind myself once in a while to take it step by step.
hope you don't mind me sharing a few steps with you :-)

oh, how true is that! I found that little reminder with my tea last night...doubt that needs more words, does it.
the school start for both girls went quite smooth, so far. as I said, it was an intense week...meeting all this new faces, deciding for outer school activities, making it to meetings and especially in time for pick up!
I still managed a few big steps during my mornings:
signed up for a French course
made it to the Sivananda center and
this wonderful yoga studio
found back into my meditation practice using a meditation app and loving it!
the weather has been fully on our side, showing the first signs of autumn. how exciting for us...chestnut crafting started and a few coloured leaves are collected already.
Sunday was spent at the lake, where my big girl decided to take part in a wake board competition. after just learning this sport 2 weeks ago, I am pretty impressed she did it - the smile on her face says it all.
yes, it's an intense time, but we're enjoying it and try to take one step at a time. we try to remember to take breaks, be the crazy family we like to be, as laughter is what we need most on the days it all just gets too much.
I am most grateful to have this two girls who are just crazy enough and help putting many smiles on our faces :-)
