Perfectly timed rainbow.

7:07 am

I don't know why I didn't include this detail in yesterday's post. I didn't forget, but I think I'm still a little wary of that whole "signs" thing.

I think it was around seven on Friday evening when the heavens opened and the rain came. Ernest and I were in the loft, and the rain on the roof was deafening. Ernest had just nodded off on my shoulder as the rain cleared, the golden evening sunlight lit up the skies and there over the roof tops was this beautiful rainbow.
I know, so many would say it was a gift from Florence. Honestly I don't believe that, but I do believe it made my heart leap, and I dashed for the camera. (and one day I'll learn to take better pictures of rainbows)
Really it doesn't matter what I do or don't believe. Rainbows make me smile, and this perfectly timed rainbow lifted my heart for a few moments. x

Don't be shy, say hello!

  1. I'm not sure what I believe, my Gran is with me all the time and sometimes I feel things happen by her hand? And the ladybirds come out to play when we're in the garden.
    Who knows, it warms my heart and adds light to the day.

  3. Beautiful, I agree I'm not a believer in signs 'white feathers' etc. I do however, know the simple joy of a rainbow - and I do think of Archie as my wee rainbow after the tears. xxx holding you close in my thoughts

  4. "I know, so many would say it was a gift from Florence. Honestly I don't believe that, but I do believe it made my heart leap, and I dashed for the camera."

    That's how I feel, too. Simply appreciating beauty when I see beauty.

  5. Beautiful. I have a tough time believing in signs, too. I think, though, when you have that moment of beauty, it's a good time to just soak it in and remember.
    Sending love to you.

  6. I've been away so am only just seeing all your posts about Florence's birthday. I have thought about you and sweet Florence whilst I've been on holiday. I love the photographs of the balloon release - beautiful. I don't think of it as a "sign" but I do know rainbows always lift my heart and make me stop and relax and just be for a minute. In that sense, they are a gift. I am glad that you were gifted with one at such an appropriate time.
