*Spring is slowly settling in & the short, but profound life of Walter, the Sunday's child

Slowly spring is settling in. 

Violets have started to bloom in cushion formations in the garden and I took the liberty of picking a few to make myself some tea. Their scent alone is the epitome of spring awakening. One of our apricot tree is also suddenly in full bloom and every morning I witness how the rabbits are grazing fresh greens in our garden. The birds are enjoying the rain that we had lately and so do I. We had the first thunderstorm of the year and it felt fantastic and somehow it's hard to believe that winter is finally coming to an end! I had wonderful 8 days with Walter, the moth that hatched in the middle of March, he really helped me to blind out my current physical state. I feel grateful for the time I had with him and already miss his presence. It's terrible that Giant Peacock Moths are more and more dying out because of the chemical sprays that people use. I don't understand how those can still be allowed. It's a real crime towards all life on earth.

It's hard to get over how adorable his face was!
