10 months

Elliot is 10 months now. 10 months of new life, new journey. My heart is full of happiness and gratitude. However there are days when I feel being exhausted would never stop. These months taught me to trust my instincts and follow my heart. It has been a lesson of new self and old self, of loneliness (living rural) and going beyond. It has been time of experiencing love every day.

Last painting I did during pregnancy. I have been sketching Elliot's portraits since he was born. They are my prints of love, tiredness (always sketching in the evenings), gratitude, fear of being not perfect. They are my prints of motherhood. They are my gifts for Elliot.

  1. So cute. Sometimes the solitude is so hard, but you will have a special bond. There are no perfects in being a parent, at least not for me that's for sure. We just love and give it our best. My boy will be 31 soon, so fast. Enjoy the handsome one. xox

  5. Dearest Aga, these are delightful and so full of tenderness and sweetness. Big hugs to you. We are traveling right now, in Japan, and Ada seems to be a natural adventurer so perhaps Scotland will again be in our future :) <3
