Winter afternoon sunlight

I adore winter afternoon sunlight. Suddenly in the southwestern sky, the sun comes in at an angle lighting up my backyard in a special way.


In my Utah house kitchen, the sun brings a moment of cheerfulness in late afternoon before disappearing behind the mountains on the far side of the valley. As a young mom in Bountiful I would rearrange the furniture in the winter. I would place a love seat in the dining space on the south side of the house just so I could curl up with a book in the sunlight while my babies took naps.

This little house makes me feel cheerful as well. Glen gave it to me for Christmas. One always needs another birdhouse.
