Leaf: "I am a frayed and nibbled survivor in a fallen world, and I am getting along. I am ageing and eaten and have done my share of eating too. I am not washed and beautiful, in control of a shining world in which everything fits, but instead wandering awed on a splintered wreck I've come to care for, whose gnawed trees breathe delicate air, whose bloodied and scarred creatures are my dearest companions, and whose beauty beats and shines not in its imperfections but overwhelmingly in spite of them." Annie Dillard (Yarramundi, Australia)

Leaf: My world is all about tiny things at the moment; tiny fingers and toes, a tiny (but huge) job of caring for a newborn…and it is all happening in the tiny space of my home right now. I was overjoyed to notice the Golden Ratio (Fibbonaci sequence) in this tiny bush flower after I loaded the photo onto my computer. Tiny and mind-blowing! (Yarramundi, Australia)

Rae: Wookie, Kai, and I got on the scooter one afternoon for a little drive out to a nearby village. Wookie loves sitting in the basket, and I love the way the wind picks up her ears when we drive. (Pai, Thailand)

Leaf: This is the sweet front gate that I walk through every day at Mundi Farm. (Yarramundi, Australia)

Rae: Back at home, Kenya is up to her usual magic, this time with glue and colored paper. (Pai, Thailand)
