Your Sunday morning message - a wonderful addition to my already special morning. I too awoke early, started a fire, lite my candles, enjoyed my decaf coffee and said my prayers. On my way to town for church was gifted with that beautiful sunrise you shared!
I love your writing Kate, your descriptions so vivid, as if I’m right there with your starting the fire and feeding the chicks. I too love early mornings in the Pacific Northwest, and thanks to a new puppy, my mornings are even earlier now. “The Nightingale” was beautiful, well written historical fiction. Kristin Hannah is one of my favorite authors, you can’t go wrong with her books.
Thanks for your kind word, Steph. I’ve read some of Hannah’s other titles and agree 100%. And a new puppy! How wonderful! May you have many happy years together.
So peaceful! I loved your individual descriptions of the sky.
Thank you, Kate. I enjoyed your story so much that I didn't even notice your shout-out to my Substack, Finding Home. So very kind of you! xo
You are so very welcome. We both love "home"...wherever that be.

May the rest of your day be peaceful.
What a peaceful way to awaken to this day…Your morning traditions, the sky, the flute music…Thank you, Kate.
You are so welcome. If your path brings you and yours this way once again, you know where to find me. 💗

Magical. Early morning is my favorite time of day. Thank you for taking me along on yours! You showed it beautifully.
There is such peace and promise in the early hours.
There is something so authentic and intimate in one’s morning routine- I think I am most myself in the wee hours of the morning.
Oh yes. I remember someone saying to me once as I was about to travel to the Aran Islands that “it’s so quiet there you can see yourself.”
What a lovely picture your words paint. I hope you enjoy The Nightingale. It is one of my favorite recently read books.
Thank you! I love her writing.
Beautiful! The magic of the morning when the world is still sleeping. My favorite time of day…peace
Mine too, Molly.
How truly cozy! I can see your fire in the wood stove and feel it. Especially love the description of the chickens 😊
Oh and I love that you have a Hestia mug!!
Why does this not surprise me, dear Jan? 😉
This is gorgeous, Kate! It’s 5:30 am here in Chicago and it was so wonderful reading this now, at this hour.
Thank you so much, Jolene!
