About Me
When not smiling at pregnant people at the grocery store, I love talking with my two teenagers and adventuring close to home or far away. My favorite things include sleeping, reading, hiking, paddling, tea with friends, and yoga on mountaintops.
All of these make me a very happy mama -- at least most of the time! I have my moments, just like everyone else. I live with my husband and children in Durham, NC. |
