Thinking of fairies and babies’ laughter

Taking a step back from that with this thought to pause, take a deep breathe and release...


“...Because you see when a new baby laughs for the first time a new fairy is born, and as there are always new babies there are always new fairies”
(From Peter Pan)

"Know you what it is to be a child?
It is to believe in love, to believe in loveliness, to believe in belief;
it is to be so little that the elves can reach to whisper in your ear,
it is to turn pumpkins into coaches, and mice into horses,
lowness into loftiness, and nothing into everything,
for each child has its fairy godmother in its soul"
(Francis Thomson)


[P.S. On the second fairy that came to live in our house]
