The Annals of the extremely diverse, artistic, literary, and musical lifestyle of a Charlotte Mason education-loving family. Our philosophy, even though our children are all grown now, is to allow for time and space in each day to be present for those memorable moments; the ones both on and off the calendar.
"'Stay' is a charming word in a friend's vocabulary."

nature observances
Visitors to our yard ~ the ducks stop through every day, making their rounds...in between the rains, that is. Yes, it is a marsh in our yard. No hay problema, I don't mind, at least not in the spring :-).
Also visiting today ~ Hackberry butterflies (en masse). Our bushes were covered with them, and I got so many photos, some with six or seven butterflies in the frame.
We found a brown butterfly yesterday. It is posted on our blog. I thought it might be a hackberry, but after looking at your photos, I think ours has smaller, less magnificent wings. Will you pop over and see what you think it is?
What great pictures!

I love ducks. I had several pet ducks, a couple of chickens and some quail when I was a girl.
