Today my daughter - Adelynn Grace, 5 years old - graduated from Kindergarten. I helped her get dressed and brought her outside, tears in my eyes and took a beautiful photo of her standing with the sunshine illuminating her. It was beautiful. Normally, I'm pretty tough. I honestly haven't shed many tears in the past… Continue reading Lessons Learned

The Magician
This year around December 31st I purchased a new calendar to hang for the next 12 months. I was so excited to take home my brand new Tarot themed calendar, full of different cards, decks, illustrations and interpretations. I loved the idea of each month being designated to a unique card, and also being able… Continue reading The Magician
The Peace Village
Several years ago a friend of mine was telling me about a retreat center in the Catskill Mountains of New York. She said it was called The Peace Village. Now this same friend tells me that she doesn't remember our conversation and has never been to Peace Village... ironic. I'm happy to say I've been… Continue reading The Peace Village
We Have Everything, We Have Nothing
IÂ made a new friend this week. Pretty cool right? Several weeks ago, an existing friend handed me a business card that belonged to one of her colleagues. You need to contact her she told me. I was kind of surprised, but I took down the woman's email address and composed a draft email to… Continue reading We Have Everything, We Have Nothing
Comedic Relief
My husband and I love to drive places. We have done the trip to New York from Virginia and vice versa many many times.

I took that act pretty seriously, and more important was what I asked for for Christmas last year. There were 2 things. A new laptop... And a better relationship and understanding of… Continue reading After 100 Days
Rebirth
Happy Easter 🙂 I spent a lovely sunny Sunday with my family today enjoying all of the normal Easter traditions... eggs, chocolate, sweets and good company. As my husband and I drove down to my moms house today we began talking a bit about Easter and some of the pagan traditions and beliefs. I grew… Continue reading Rebirth
Our Stories
Several weeks ago I was plugged into my phone listening to some random music on YouTube. A song came on that I recognized, and I looked down to see that the artist was James Bay... the song, Hold Back the River. I clicked on his name and more songs came up, so I continued listening.… Continue reading Our Stories
I’m Back
This just seemed to be an appropriate title. I'm sorry - to all who may care - that I fell off the planet over the past few weeks. Honestly, my laptop was dead and every time the inspiration to sit down and write hit me... I'd sit down and the poor thing would spit and… Continue reading I’m Back
