The Power of Transformation
I’ve been thinking about transformation often lately as a mother. I’m one of those moms with 65,000 pictures. This isn’t even an exaggeration. What is cooler than technology in terms of storing memories? I love Time Hop and even the functions on the iPhone that allow me to go back in time. What was I Continue reading

Sepia-Tone Memories
Birthdays are always a reminder of the passing time, the embrace of another year. Having four kids means there are more birthdays, and each one brings about a feeling of nostalgia, a lust for time to stand still if only for an instant.
