New Tricks

It’s when I’m spiritually fit enough that I can let my guard down and act like a goofy kid that I feel the happiest.

Christmas Routines

The magic is very alive in the house because of our youngest, the nugget. We should probably call her firecracker. Or perhaps perpetual motion machine. More apropos, even, is the energizer bunny. She keeps going and going and going.
