For all my non-AZ friends, we suffer through the oven-summers to make it to this. Cheers to my friend Mike for a gorgeous shot from the mountain that was in the backyard of my condo. I’d run to the mountain, run up, run down and run back. Now I push a stroller with two children, […]

At the splash pad today one little four year old girl was talking to another girl in the loud, unregulated vocal stylings that only children of that age can produce: “HEY, I NEED TO TELL YOU SOME-FING! …. I DON’T WANT TO TALK WITH YOU ANYMORE. *Big pause while the other girl processed it and […]

We often tell stories of strangers attempting to shame us or just say superior things to heal their insecurities. This is not one of those stories. This is a good story- gather round. As I was loading my two boys in the car from the grocery store, I strapped in the little one and a […]
