Festival of Plants - Advent

The second light of Advent is the light of plants.
Roots, stem, leaf, flower and fruit by whom we live and grow.



Our plant kingdom angel created with honesty seeds.



On Sunday we awoke to the most beautiful sights around us - a majestic sun rising casting golden splendour upon white frost and glistening ice. The stark beauty of the bare trees and the glorious sound of the large flocks of starlings telling all the world that it was indeed the festival of plants. Mother Nature had adorned herself in spendour for this festival - all awaiting the coming!



We dashed out and enjoyed an exhilerating walk in nature and were filled with reverence. Later, we planted three holly bushes with each child.
