Two days before I left on my trip to Austin my mother flew in from the Midwest. She came for two reasons, both greatly appreciated. My trip was very close to my daughters birthday, for which my mom comes into town each year anyway. But the timing, the early arrival was due to the fact … Continue reading mothered
little sleeps
Every night has the same routine. That doesn't mean that every night is the same. They all have their own special set of circumstances. A different set of challenges. Conversations. A new story to read or a new chapter to begin. The pjs change. Sometimes the cats curl up at the foot of her bed. … Continue reading little sleeps
time
Time is such a slippery commodity. It's not measurable in advance with any certainty but the increments we leave behind are solid, accounted for down to the microsecond on the clock of life. Each moment changing, evolving, forming us as we continue on our paths. But there is no universal scale with which to weigh … Continue reading time

Eight years ago my life changed in the most amazing way. I met the most remarkable person. Someone who will be tied to my heart, my life, my existence for all time. It was eight years ago today that my beautiful daughter K was born. When I held her in my arms I didn't imagine … Continue reading eight

leaving on a jet plane…

Does it really matter what kind of plane I'm flying on? Are you that superficial. Look... I'm getting on some sort of aircraft at some … Continue reading leaving on a jet plane…
happy being 33 day…
Yesterday was my birthday. My 33rd birthday to be specific and look at that... I let the day go by without a blog post. Hmmm. How did that happen? How did I not remember to mark my special day with a blog post etched indelibly on the face of the internet? Oh that's right. I … Continue reading happy being 33 day…

Tonight is Ignite Portland 8. It's part of Global Ignite week which is very exciting for all sorts of people all over the place. Really it is. Do you like how I just cut to the chase there? Yeah. I really got right into it because I've already written a post about attending Ignite today. … Continue reading redundancy…

This morning when I woke, and yes this is one of those posts that start with me waking up to some amazing realization so try to contain yourself, I was just a little happier than was strictly necessary for any morning let alone 6:30 in the morning on a Monday with the sound of an … Continue reading in March
