The Year of WE

Happy new year from Whitcomb Elementary,

where we're celebrating the year of WE.

What Should Danny Do?

Happy Friday; today I'm excited because we get to celebrate

Jacob's 25th birthday as a family this weekend.

It doesn't seem possible that a quarter of a century has gone by

since this boy came into our lives during a thunderstorm.

Spectacular Picture-Book Picks

Today I'm thinking about all of the picture books I've added to my shelves 

this summer as we gear up for the 2019-2020 school year.

How many of these beautiful gems do you already have?

To Feel Like Home

Happy August. In Texas, it's typically the hottest month,

but also a season filled with anticipation and joy

as schools reopen and prepare for another year

of stretching, learning, connecting, and growth. 

Like Oxygen

Happy Thursday. I've been unplugged for a bit,

enjoying beautiful sunsets like this one, in Wisconsin.

Connecting With Curiosity

I'll be honest; it hasn't felt all that sweet or homey lately,

during the mess of the remodel. But today,

the new doormat our front door says it all.
