artist — mother — create — love — laugh — pray

This is to be a quiet place for me. A well deserved 10 minutes for a mommy to gain clarity & perspective, perhaps discover how to manage this balancing act of mine? I've also decided this to be my creative voice so you will likely see art (& artists) I admire, recipes, inspirational quotes. Or even a nod to the latest gadget/child must-have? My joys & frustrations with parenthood, work & most anything else that goes on in my oh-so-glamorous life! I'm a stay at home mommy by day. At night I read bedtime stories. When I'm not busy cutting food into small pieces, I design.

In Loving Memory ....


Hello everyone. Sorry I haven't posted for a while. Many of you know my mom, Karen, passed away September 30th, 2007 after a terribly long and courageous battle with ovarian cancer. Our world as we know it is forever changed. Add to that, just three weeks prior, our son Zach was born (who continues to be a bright spot in all this). Celebrating this new life while mourning someone I love so dearly has been extremely difficult. Each day is brighter as I am comforted by our Heavenly Father. Thank you, all of you, for your kind words of sympathy, support, and prayers for me and my family. She was a cornerstone in our family and will be deeply missed. You can expect more regular posts from my little corner of the web soon ....
