Dream Love ♡

I never got to post this exact photo, but it's one of my favorites of us ever! It is from the naming ceremony of our little boy. The picture was taken by my brother @mrleafbeard while we were all surroundered by our nearest family in our garden. So special to have all our dear ones gathered together in this manner, it was the first time parts of our families got to meet each other. If you are curious, I wrote all about the naming ceremony on my blog (link in my profile), but you might have to scroll a bit to find it 😉 Or use the "search' function 👍 I even wrote a bit about how our ancestors the vikings used to do it 😅 Did you know that literally any culture all over the world, in all times, have had some kind of ceremony or ritual to welcome their young ones into the community? With great variations of what is done of course, but then again, many things are quite alike! Infant baptism is actually never mentioned in the Bible, but has been common in various ancient cultures, as a form of cleansing ritual. According to Old Norse tradition, a newborn was fully viable and no longer abandonable after nine nights of life. On the tenth day, the child was given a name at a ceremony where he or she became a legal member of the family and eligible to inherit (acknowledged by the father). The Old Norse term for the naming ceremony (nafnfest) is apparantly“vatni ausa”, “to sprinkle with water.” As you might expect, I’m no fan of doing things in a conventional way, so we decided to make our own kind of ceremony, something which would feel right for us. I wish more people did more conscious decisions and did things more wholeheartedly, I think everything we do should feel meaningful and authentic. It doesn’t have to be spectacular or extraordinary, but you should feel it in your hearts, the inherent rightness in what you do. How did you present your child to the world? Did you have any kind of ceremony? A celebration? I would love to hear 💜 #elvesofinstagram #pixiehat #alternativestyle #alternativecouple #alternativefamily #fairychild #flowersinmyhair #flowerwreath #menwithlonghair #longbeard #trollstigen #fairyfamily #bohemianfamily #fantasystyle #fairycore # https://www.instagram.com/p/CT2rQcAKxV7/?utm_medium=tumblr

Six year anniversary

After years of being in unhealthy/abusive/toxic relationships, I've never been more grateful to have had this man by my side for the last year. Being in a healthy, happy relationship is the most amazing feeling and he helps me deal with my BPD by being such a loving, funny and supportive human being. Here's to the many more years to come🥂💖
