How Does Your Garden Grow? - Week 26

This week has been a hard week. We lost my Nanna on Tuesday. I have always been especially close to her so I am really feeling the loss.

Our garden has become a haven for me. I have spent many a time sat thinking, crying, being with the children and just finding some comfort from the tranquillity and peacefulness that the garden provides.

I have also found that my camera has become a form of escapism from reality for me. I have found taking pictures gives me something else to focus on.

This is how our garden has grown...











I am sharing how our garden has grown with Manneskjur - How Does Your Garden Grow?

  13. I remember being so down one day. I am so messed up and worse I have to pick my son up in an hour. How can I face him? I went out of the house really early with the camera, walked around and took photos and I dont know. I just felt better. Not healed but better. Just enough for me to get my son from school. Smile at him and give him a kiss and go and be a mother. Photography is saving me a lot of times lately and the flowers that I am taking photos of.

    Sorry about your Nana.
