The space where I teach my childbirth education classes is absolutely gorgeous. The most stunning feature is a completely redone, exposed brick wall that spans the entire length of the room and I and just giddy to be near it.

Just think of the adventures we’d have! Now, I suppose we’d also have to head south at some point, since the idea of winter-caravanning is somewhat less appealing in…
Being the mama of a very sweet three-year-old girl means that I’m FOREVER oohing and ahhing over cute outfits and designers. Also, at this age, she’s definitely starting to find her own style, which makes shopping for her really exciting. Here are a few that I think she’d be pretty happy about:
I have dreamed of living in a tree house ever since I first read The Swiss Family Robinson as a small child. I was convinced that there couldn’t possibly be anything cooler than living way up in the tree tops, with exotic pets and an island all around.
