Sitting on the deck early this morning, a bright beautiful red Cardinal joined us. There is never an easy way to say this, so Im just going to say it… On the May long weekend, we received some heavy news. The journey we had been on with our daughter for over a year, came withContinue reading “Empowering Your Child Through Cancer | A Mother’s Journey”

Lilacs at the School
My creativity has been stifled, its amazing how life can shift you like that, when big things happen. Ive been wanting to get some macro lilacs shots, its been hard to feel motivated.

Put The To-Do List Aside
Tomorrow it becomes known of what my daughter is facing. I am an honest mixture of sadness, sorrow, anger, frustration and optimism.

DWP | Life Advice
When I read this, what jumped into my head was something my daughter said to me many years ago, probably at least 10. Someone had mailed her a birthday card. This person made little effort to be in the kids life, their choice, and when the card was received in the mail I focused onContinue reading “DWP | Life Advice”
