I am wife to a magnificent man and mother to five wonderful children. Three of my children were born in the Northwest and two were born thousands of miles away in Liberia, West Africa. Birthplace is no matter, all of my children were born in my heart. This is our journey.

Leaf Season

The very thing that drew us to this neighborhood is the very thing that may drive us to move some day.


The trees are a gorgeous canopy in the spring and a mess in the fall. 


We are in the fourth week of leaf blowing and we have at least four weeks to go.


All of us neighbors work together to put the pile in the middle of the cul-de-sac. It makes for hours of fun for the kids and keeps the mess to a minimum until the city picks them up in December.
