Happy 3 month birthday Anna!

Anna is now just a little over 3 months old. She is well over double the weight she came home from the hospital as. It is such an amazing thing to watch. It feels almost like a time lapse movie because it is happening so fast. We know she won’t always want to snuggle this […]

What you see is what you get…

An amazing thing about kids and toddlers especially is their lack of pretense. What you see is what you get, if they are feeling something they will express it. Often with Anna, that means crying or curiosity, but every once in awhile she shows us the most beautiful smile and our world stops for a […]

An Unusual Game of Monopoly

Yesterday I won a game of Monopoly against my students and I felt like I was the worst player among them. I was really good, I stacked up on houses early on and made a ton of money in rent. When they couldn’t pay my rent they gave me their locations until I had the […]

We dressed up like Alice in Wonderland characters mixed with animals from our ecoregion, so we had the cheshire mink, Alice, The Mad Hatter Lumberjack (me), A Black Spruce Tree, A beaver that was late for a very important […]

Some New Songs

Here are a few more songs I’ve recorded recently. The first is “In a Sweater Poorly Knit” a cover of a great MeWithoutYou song. While doing an assignment I listened to it on repeat like 30 times and some of the words really got into my heart. Especially the last lines “I do not exist, […]

Caring Hearts Camp
