welcome

There are a few things that have definitively changed my life:

1. Dry shampoo …  Any woman should know about this and use it. Less showering, more living.
2. Netflix and Hulu … Do I even need to explain this one?
3. Emily Schromm’s 21-day Superhero Challenge … Talk about a game-changer.

late, warm summer nights
sand boxes and jungle gyms,
a backyard haven.

so many helpers
surrounding little LuBird
all with gleeful hearts

because Lu is joy.
she is happiness, love, bliss,
a beacon of light.

action-packed mornings
sleepy afternoons that lead
into settled nights

life with a toddler,
not for the faint of heart or
the tired of mind.

gorgeous baby blues
worn by the happiest girl,
but no shirt or shoes.

bright light, busy kids
games, laughter, teasing, some tears.
and also, chickens.
