Last Friday I went on a early morning run by myself through some nearby trails. The tempreture was ideal and the sunrise so perfect I couldn’t help but snap a few pictures as I went. Nathan is starting to be more adventurous at the park. Last week he began walking outside without holding my hand –…

Back when we were doing our Under the Sea theme week, Emily and I took some time while grocery shopping to look at the fish. It was very empowering to realize I could put almost no extra effort into something and have it turn out to be an awesome enrichment activity that she loved. Another…
