Living Arrows – 9/53 {2018}

Welcome back to another week of Living Arrows. I loved seeing everyone link up last week – and cannot wait to see the children grow through 2018.

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.

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!

This week’s photos were just taken at home yesterday as I was away on a lovely spa break on Friday and Saturday. LP loves reading and is so good at reading now. I had no idea children could read so early in life – and couldn’t remember when I actually learnt to read myself. So listening to LP read with such confidence makes me so proud. It’s a joy to see her love of reading.

Little Man loves trains – and built this train all by himself. Notice he’s wearing his Thomas jumper too – he literally lives and breathes trains at the moment. This week he has also embraced a lovely natural smile instead of the cheesey grin he’s been sporting over recent months.

  1. Loving your photos this week! I don’t remember when I learned to read either but I do remember a teacher telling me how important reading was and how it would change my life. So true!

  2. It’s lovely to listen to them read isn’t it, they pick it up so quickly if it captures their imagination. I love little mans train it’s brilliant. He would love Mattel Play in Liverpool, you must visit if you are ever up this way x

  3. I have loved reading since I was tiny. My mum says I learnt to read when I was 3 as I memorised words and signs I saw. I love to see children enjoying books x

  4. It is such a joy to listen to them reading isn’t it!! Henry is starting to blend words and understand our crazy language a little bit more and it’s amazing watching him develop!! Lovely photos xx

  5. That’s so good that LP loves reading – I really hope my boys love to read too, I’m so impressed with how well Toby is doing with it already. And that is a fab train – it’s lovely when you manage to get a genuine smile isn’t it?
