"In order for there to be new growth, there must be a time of letting go" -Danielle Orner As I reflect on this past week, I realize I have been gently letting go of a lot of "stuff" lately, and especially this week. There has been a letting go of items around the house that... Continue Reading →
(in case you're wondering, after a wonderful day of celebration and reflection yesterday, life is officially back to normal today) So . . .yesterday the WHO announced that red and processed meats lead to an increased risk of colorectal cancer. I was amazed by just how many people were talking about this announcement yesterday -... Continue Reading →
Today is a milestone in my life. A day to remember where I've been, to think about where I am, and to dream about where I want to be in the future. Four years ago today when the alarm went off at 4:30 in the morning, I had to try and kiss my sleeping little... Continue Reading →

After about 1,000,000 attempts to come up with a cookie that was paleo, nut free, gluten free AND that my kids would actually like, I had to cut my losses, walk away, and accept that my kids would snack on store-bought organic chocolate gingersnaps at school for their "treat" snack. But today, I was oddly... Continue Reading →
It was pretty much a cuteness overload when all 6 cousins changed into their matching jammies on Sunday night. And it was even cuter when the 5 of them that are old enough to walk ran outside to see how their jammies glow in the dark. And it's crazy to think that this was the scene... Continue Reading →
