Welcome to Seasons of Light, a place shaped by earth, motherhood, and wonder. Here I gather the small, luminous moments of daily life: the rhythm of days, the turning of seasons, and the beauty and ache of raising children. I am a mother, a keeper of stories, and a lifelong student of light, in all its many forms. I’m glad you’re here.

I didn’t come to teach you.
I came to love you.
Love will teach you.

Easter 2026 • Just the sweetest day. Time with fam Easter 2026 • Just the sweetest day. Time with family. Celebrating love. Counting my beautiful blessings. 🌸🐣🐰✨
Breaking Easter up into two posts because it was s Breaking Easter up into two posts because it was such a sweet holiday & also because it was the first time in a year that I actually had the emotional strength to take proper photos of anything. 🐣🐰 I loved their baskets this year because they were so special. 

The previous year I had gone into the city with Roman & Marina to see the cherry blossoms in Central Park. We spent the day wandering the city and stopped at FAO Schwartz. It was just after Easter so everything was on clearance and I grabbed a bunch of things including the baskets and held onto them until this year. 

I loved how they came together and seeing their sweet joy on Easter morning is always the greatest gift. 🌸
Just have to do one full post dedicated to our boy Just have to do one full post dedicated to our boy— Finnick Marshmallow aka “Finn.” Didn’t think I had it in me to love one more little soul as much as I love my old dog, Samwell. But here we are. We’re all obsessed with this boy, truly. He may be the cutest thing I’ve ever seen and he’s also the sweetest. Even Sam loves him, too. 

Marina is the best little puppy mama. Jordan carries him around constantly. And Jonah chases him around the yard until they both collapse while I laugh so hard that my stomach hurts. 

My heart is so very full. ♥️🐾
And then there was this day. Absolutely one of the And then there was this day. Absolutely one of the best days of my life. We drove out to Lancaster the day after Marina’s birthday to pick up her birthday gift. Our sweet Finn! 🐾 

It was such an absolutely beautiful & magical day. I love Lancaster though I hadn’t been there in years. We had been communicating with Finn’s family for months beforehand and they were the sweetest, most darling Amish family. 

The whole day was a dream and something I’ll cherish always.
