About Me

My photo
I have lived in the Pacific Northwest for most of my life. I have always enjoyed playing outside, as well as curling up with a good book in front of a nice fire. I am the fifth of five children; the aunt of nine; and the mother of two. I believe in raising my child on love and sunshine.

I have been urged by a few select people, who I hold in high esteem, to write a blog.  I must admit that at first the idea seemed ridiculous.  I have never read a blog in my life- why would anyone read mine?  How does one go about writing a blog- aren't they filled with just a bunch of mumbo-jumbo, mundane details of someone's daily life?  Well, I am not really sure (remember- I have never really read a blog before) but I guess that is where I will start...


I can’t say as an individual, or as a mother, that I am exactly mainstream.  However, I am no holy-hippie either.  I believe, the best things for my family are simple:  love, sunshine, nutritious food, and laughing.  We try to get a little of all these things each day- although nestled in the woods, on a small island in the Puget Sound makes getting sunshine our biggest challenge!  


In this blog, I hope to share the fun and the wisdom that comes along with being a parent.  Well, the wisdom part- I guess- is debatable... I'll let you be the judge of that part!
