Autumn is coming

The September rain is gently ticking against the window. 

The evenings are getting darker.

 In my living room, the candles are spreading a flickering light,

 and it smells like freshly baked apple pie.

Blankets and cozy slippers have found their way back downstairs.

The muddy boots in the kitchen are a reminder of the walk in the forest this afternoon. Just like the acorns and leafs gathered by my little girl.

Oh yes, autumn is coming...
