Flipping

This year is whizzing by at break neck speed - May already!.  It seems before I know it I am flipping over to a new month on my calender.  Before long it'll be time to keep an eye out for next years' and attend to transferring the special dates and anniversaries.

I love a good calender and find that beauty and form definitely must match it with function! 

Some months I get really attached to the page, my scribblings on it, the image and lament losing it.  Other months, less enamoured I  flip thrilled to reveal an unexpected beauty. With each flip I feel a mixture of things...sometimes renewal - a new month ahead with plans, other flips I fear how quickly the days are passing.

 I loved April - so fresh and pretty!

 I was disappointed at first  with May.. but it's grown on me!  All wintry in palette.

So the tending of the family calender is definitely one of those rituals that happens here with reflection and enjoyment.  It's the simple things..
