A Saturday at the Flower Fields

Happy Saturday evening everyone!

How was your day? It was such a beautiful, warm and breezy kind of day and I enjoyed every moment of this wonderful Easter Eve.

Today was one of those days that felt like a little pocket of magic tucked inside real life.

My friends and I spent the afternoon wandering through the Carlsbad Flower Fields — oceans of color stretching in every direction, the kind of beauty that makes you stop without even realizing you’ve stopped. I’m exhausted tonight (and honestly, in a bit of pain), so I’ll keep this short because I need to be up early to bake a cake or two for Easter. But I didn’t want the day to end without sharing a little piece of it.

I’ll post photos below, but there’s one moment I need to write down before sleep steals it away.

The butterflies.

They were everywhere — floating, circling, drifting like tiny pieces of sunlight. And then, somehow, they found me. More than one landed right on my hat, as if I was part of their world for a moment. It was the most spiritual, unexpected, heart‑opening experience I’ve had in a long time. I felt held. I felt seen. I felt… accompanied. I felt my dad all around me.

There was something sacred in that moment, something I’m still carrying with me tonight.

So here I am, tired and grateful, heading to bed with the softest kind of joy still fluttering around inside me.

More tomorrow.
For now — goodnight, from my corner.

Love Life++
Hugs,
Dawna
