Living Arrows – 35/52 {2019}

Welcome back to another week of Living Arrows – and thanks to everyone who linked up last week. I love this project and it’s so nice getting to know the families that participate in Living Arrows each week and this year it looks like a really lovely mix of old and new faces. 

If you haven’t joined in with Living Arrows before it’s is about celebrating childhood. The project originally took it’s name from a poem by Kahlil Gibran, “You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth” and every Monday we share a moment from our week and invite others to do the same as part of this linky.

Each week I share two pictures from our week – one of each of our children – but you can share one or more pictures that capture a moment of childhood. The following week I’ll share my three favourite photos from the week before, linking back to the owner’s blogs. As a little tip, I only really feature landscape photos – and very occasionally square photos.

So if you would like to link up, grab a badge and post around a photo of childhood from the previous week. I look forward to reading your posts and make sure you visit a few of the other posts that have linked up and leave a comment too!

Here are a few of my favourite photos from last week:

The Mama Bloggers Camera Club

My Sentimental Jamboree

Rachel Swirl

This week’s photo of LP was taken on her birthday day out at Butser Farm where Horrible Histories was filmed. She went on a school trip last year and has asked to go back with the family ever since. She had a really lovely birthday.

Little Man’s picture was taken during the children’s very first horse riding experience. I was so proud of him especially as he is usually so reserved, shy and unsure of new situations but he did so well and really embraced the experience.

I’m really looking forward to reading your posts this week and seeing the photos you share. If you link up make sure to go and read some of the other posts and I’ll be commenting and sharing them through the course of the week. Thanks so much for taking part – see you again next week!

You are invited to the Inlinkz link party!

  1. Awww thanks so much for featuring our beautiful boy, he looks really dapper in those shades bless him. So lovely to see such pretty-pony pictures, I remember my first riding lessons, still love hoofing it down the beach and I’m in my thirties, riding is definitely a super skill to acquire.

  2. Happy Happy birthday Miss Athena! Looks and sounds like she had a fabulous day. My children have yet to try horse back riding. Hopefully they will get the opportunity one day. Thank you for featuring Lily.
