Knowing my little family is all snuggled up, so cozy, so warm in this tiny cabin, seeing it from across the meadow like a voyeur in the dark on my way back from sweeping the snow off the hoop house, my heart breaks just a little more….. ⁣ ⁣.⁣ ⁣“If you’re really listening, if you’re awake to the poignant beauty of the world, your heart breaks regularly. In fact, your heart is made to break; its purpose is to burst open again and again so that it can hold evermore wonders”.⁣ ⁣Andrew Harvey⁣ ⁣.⁣ ⁣.⁣ ⁣.⁣ ⁣#robinwood #offgridhomestead #snowday #snowstorm2019 #tinyhouseliving #cabininthewoods #offgridliving #simplelife #wintercozy #cabinlife I realized over the holidays, that living in a tiny little cabin with a toddler has its benefits. I can sit. I am not running around the house chasing trouble all day. Here at home, wherever I am, he’s always in my sight, earshot, arms reach. I don’t miss a thing. While this little cabin is not always peaceful, I really am grateful for this cozy time in our lives. And I can sip tea all I want. And look, he’s vacuuming under the couch. ⁣ ⁣.⁣ ⁣.⁣ ⁣.⁣ ⁣.⁣ ⁣#robinwood #motherhood #tinyhomeliving #offgridhomestead #tinyhousewithkids #robinwoodfarm #toddlerlife #tinyhouseliving Hey mamas, the relentless screaming got too much for me today. Those blood curdling high pitched noises only a miserable tear streaked child can make. I sang, I distracted, I redirected, I took him outside, I got books, I got snacks, I screamed back, I added to the noise to make a point. It didn’t work. I worried. What is wrong? What does he need? Why is he melting into a limp pile of misery? I tried and checked all the things. I didn’t know, he wouldn’t tell me. Eventually I went outside, alone, to breathe. I explained to him through his shrieking and wailing, I’d be right back. I had to breathe. I chopped wood for a minute or two, I inhaled the cold sharp air of the damp woods of January, and I then went back to the cabin. And you know what? I saw him through the window. Smiling at me. Smiling. Playing with a toy. He was fine. Better than fine. ⁣ ⁣Now what do I do with this torturous manipulating? What is going on with my sweet boy??⁣ ⁣.⁣ ⁣.⁣ ⁣.⁣ ⁣.⁣ ⁣#robinwood #justbreathe #motherhood #harddays #offgridparenting #toddlermomlife #tantrumdays Top nine?!!! Nudity, wild flowers, the bus, the moon!! 😜🌸🌝The likes have spoken. Haha. I’m not sure it defines my year totally, but I’ll take it. I’m sending my heart out there, all the way to the stars. May you be blessed with little things, with smiles, lessons, sweetness and magic. Happy New Year, earthlings. You are important, you are loved. . . . . #robinwood #bestnine2019 #happynewyear2020 #robinwoodfarm
