Day 1.
‘Cuz it’s the first day of the rest of our lives, right? . . . Hi. (waves) Today is my first official day of being a full-time, stay-at-home mom. And despite the whole working remotely thing happening for months on end, it feels pretty good to be 100% done. Close the book. Wave goodbye. It’s…

Silent Joy.
This evening is a quiet one. I sit here in what I call The Reading Room, with the window open and a delicious breeze tickling the curtains.
