Living Arrows | N-ICE Weather For A Walk

'You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth' Khalil Gibran.

This picture looks like she's about to drop some sick hip hop beats (I cringed writing that- I feel so old!). Hasn't it been a cold week!? The thermals and flasks have definitely been used.

Autism & Relationships: How Autism Impacts On Dating
