Sara and Jonas



Maia and Sara are in Belgium, so I went to Katy with Jonas.
Maia asked me "Why he doesn't eat soup?" and "What does 
he do all day?".
Sara didn't ask anything, she watched with fascination at the 
baby while holding him.

just walking






Every day, I take a walk with Jonas and Flynn. Despite the rainy weather,
it feels good to be outside.

looking up



This beautiful mobile was made by Joanna for Jonas. 
He likes to look at it . And so do I. 
The forms and the colors change all the time, when it 
moves in space while the light changes.
More of Joanna's recent work here.

Josse, Sarah and Els came to see Jonas. We had a coffee table and 
we took a walk, like on a real family Sunday.

a day in bear's life








Jonas got these beautiful block-puzzle from Elise.
I love the images who give us a look in the daily life of bear
and his friend, rabbit!

sailors and visitors




Yesterday I drove from my dad's place to Antwerp, to see the the arrival
of Father Bruin who participated the Antwerp Race.
Today we had visitors for Jonas. He's so sweet and quiet. It's a blessing
to have a baby like him!





I went to my dad. 
Autumn arrived and I love the colors it brings.

vrijdag 2 oktober 2015



Looking through the window tonight, we saw a hedgehog walking
in the garden.
I went outside to make a picture of him. As soon as he saw me
coming, he turned himself into a ball.
