Things We Like to Touch

There are so many things I like to touch so I can't include everthing! I loved to touch my children when they were babies and toddlers. I loved to hold their little chubby hands and feet and their soft, soft skin.
I like to touch my guineapigs. They come in all shapes and sizes and different coat types. Elsa, pictured above is thin because she is elderly but she has a big soft tummy and lovely, long silky hair. The others have shorter, courser hair.

I love to touch my dog Wilbur because he is such a softy. He loves being touched and cuddled and can never get close enough to me.

I like to touch my other dog Pickles, her coat is totally different to Wilburs. I especially like to touch her ears which are so soft and silky.


When my hair was growing back, I loved to touch it. I would feel each hair follicle as it was bursting through and be amazed at the downy softness of my growing hair.


I like to touch leaves on plants and trees, marvelling at their coolness and texture.
I like to touch flannellette sheets, sand in the sunshine, water on a hot day and so many other things....

  2. yes very good things to touch - nothing like the touch and scent of a babies cheek. I wanted to say touched by wind in my hair and sun on my skin - but couldn't think of a way to photo it.... LOL

  6. We can never get sick of touching our kids, even when they are so grownup, like mine are.

  7. I agree with you, babies are the most loved ones to touch.

    My 13 year old reluctantly lets me touch him.

    Happy Mothers' day.

  9. Lovely photos, Sara. The first one is my favourite, I can so relate to that! But the last one also rings a bell with me. Whenever I see a plant or flower I like I have to touch it. Also like your hair growing back shot, new life must feel wonderful.

  10. Beautiful pictures Sara. I loved each of them. My hair's growing back as well but it feels more like a brillo pad (Do you have Brillo Pads in Wales?)

    Since Mr. Linky is being mean and not letting me on today, here's the link to my FSO post--

  15. I love this post. Babies are wonderful and so are pets. I really like that you included the touch of your hair growing back. My sister is losing her hair and she described to me how it felt when it was coming out. She said she can almost feel each individual hair. It's so wierd. Glad yours is growing back and you are doing well.
