My Little Monkey



















My sweet little Emma Bean turned 2 and we had a giant celebration at my parent's house this past weekend. She ran around like a wild woman. This is a rare photo of her actually standing (semi) still, lol. She had so much fun with all her friends and family.

I love her more than the moon and the stars in the whole wide sky... and she knows it!

The Moving Moon

From The Rime of the Acient Mariner
By Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772-1834)

The moving 
Moon went 
up the sky.
And nowhere 

did abide;
Softly she 

was going up,
And a star or 
two beside...

Uffizi or Bust

















One of my favorite paintings is the Nascita di Venere, otherwise known as The Birth of Venus. It was painted by Italian renaissance artist Sandro Botticelli, c. 1486 and a simple photograph does not do it justice.
In 2007, I was lucky enough to visit the Uffizi Gallery in Florence which houses hundreds of breathtaking paintings and sculptures, including The Birth of Venus. I love art history and it is currently my mission to make it back there one day. I would love for my daughter to experience Italy the way I was able to.

Breakfast Song



This is very disturbing to me. As an avid breakfast-lover I am sincerely disappointed that there is no Capt'n Crunch in Heaven... sigh.
