Just July

 




July arrived and with it my second doctoral residency at High Mowing/Pine Hill Waldorf School. It was another amazing week with my cohort learning all about Emergency Pedagogy from the man hinself -Bernd Ruf. We celebrated David's birthday and then began our journey to Maine where we celebrated Grace's and then dropped Emma off at Pilgrim Lodge for the week. It was strange to leave one and bring the other home. While Emma was at PL Grace spent the mornings helping at Nature Camp and then we would do something fun in the afternoon. She got her hair balyaged (thanks, Emily!), we went to Tower Hill, we took the bunnies to be groomed and then it was time to pick Emma up! Once she was home we went to see the Barbie movie (these Barbies loved it!) and we went to Pickity Place for another delicious meal. All in all, it was another splendid month! xo

This is Seventeen

This is seventeen. Seventeen is a wicked sense of humor. Seventeen is spt on observation of the world around her (and telling it like it is). Seventeen is Starbucks runs with her sister/best friend and learning to drive. Seventeen is researching make-up brands to determine which is cuelty free and worth her money, and watching Instagram reels and sendign them to her mama and sister all day long ("not the Instagram reels!"). Seventeen is Lord of the Rings and Hunger Games and Taylor Swift songs. Seventeen is amazinga nd I am here for it (even if it has all gone by way too fast)! Happy birthday, Grace Elizabeth! May this next year be full of wishes come true! xo
