Thank you Brawny® Tear-A-Square® for sponsoring this post. Think of all the ways you can Put a Square There! How are you, friends? It’s finally beginning to feel like spring around here for more than a fleeting moment. It has been such a dream watching the first green buds pop on the trees and the…
“Perhaps we should love ourselves so fiercely, that when others see us they know exactly how it should be done.” –Rudy Francisco I can’t believe that we’re nearing the middle of June already. This spring has moved so quickly that it takes my breath away. The last thing that I can remember with clarity was…
It’s finally happened. The snow has melted, the flowers have opened, and the earth is alive with the warmth & joy of springtime once again. This is the moment that we’ve been waiting for through the long, cold winter. I kept Roman home from school yesterday so that we could enjoy the glory of the…

I’d rather be staring at my gorgeous newborn, playing with my toddler, or working in my garden. Even if I were…

May is here and I’ve never been happier to see it. (Even if it means that I’ll be turning thirty-one tomorrow!) The sun is shining, the weather is sweet. After being cooped up all winter, it feels amazing to be out and about once more. I’ve been getting out with my babies as much as…
