Every day I consciously look for moments of magic in the midst of my often busy, sometimes crazy days. I hope my moments inspire you to look for your own…
Even though I’m taking a break from blogging here, I’m still blogging over on the Preemie Babies 101 site. You can read the beginning here and then head over there to read the rest of the fun interview I did with Andie! An Interview with My Preemie At the end of this past summer, I … Continue Reading
Dearest Friends, As I mentioned in my previous blog post, at this point written weeks ago, this fall has been a time of transition for our family. When we moved to New Hampshire six years ago, we fell in love with a small Waldorf School on top of a hill and knew it was the … Continue Reading
I’ve had the privilege of meeting so many wonderful people through my book and blog! My latest new friend is Trish, an amazing NICU nurse and creator NICU Central, who recently surprised me with this review of Preemie! What an honor! Thank you, Trish!

This summer, I’m treating myself to an online writing/photography course. The class is called Unraveling: Ways of Seeing Myself, and taught by the wonderful, Susannah Conway, with whom I took my first online course, Blogging from the Heart, earlier this year. Our first Unraveling assignment was to think about our feet. Susannah encouraged us students, … Continue Reading
I thought it was fitting after publishing yesterday’s post about my boy growing up, that when I arrived to pick him up at work in the afternoon he was all excited to show me what he’d accomplished. I was a bit surprised when we walked right past the chicken coop he’d cleaned, the holes he’d … Continue Reading
My sister’s kids came down from Vermont to stay with us for a few days. They’re nine and six, just as mine were only a few short years ago. Yet somehow, as I’ve aged and adapted along with mine, I’ve forgotten all the sweet, little things about little ones. Like how no matter how late … Continue Reading
Yesterday he was one, and then he was five, soon eight, then ten, then twelve. Today he’s fourteen, turning fifteen in a month.
