“When you love someone, the best thing you can offer is your presence. How can you love if you are not there? “-Thich Naht Hanh My son teaches me this every day. An amazing gift that comes with childhood is play: The ability to explore and discover the world with open eyes in each moment. The other day at the park I watched Lucas climb the steps, cross a bridge, […]
I feel there is something so magical about the Season of Fall. Leaves change color and drop from the trees, the weather cools and there is the Autumn Harvest. For me, I feel most grounded during this Season. I feel at home and ready to slow down, cook a bit more and focus on creative projects. Lucas and I have been in the kitchen a lot this week. It is […]
