Did you know it’s Children’s Author week? I recently discovered that myself!   When I was a kid I loved to read. I still do! My mother is an avid reader and so she (my dad too!) would read to me all the time. When I had kids there was nothing better than grabbing their […]

I am so lucky to have two talented women that help me run my business and let me do what I love to do – they make my life much easier and I am so thankful for both of them. Since I’ve taken photos of both of them, I thought I’d show you who they […]
