The best way I know how to show love to those in my life is to nourish and heal. I head to the kitchen and create from that space. Today I'm concocting a healing brew for my husband and son. Filled with whole cloves, star anise and cinnamon, oranges and lemons, ginger root and raw honey. The little guy loves it and I love that I can help keep him healthy. Each afternoon we sit at the table together for tea and chat or make faces at eachother depending on his mood. I wouldn't trade those moments for the world.
Happy love day! π
And just like that, my baby is 2. ππ
