Dear reader, I’ve been away from my desk . . . sucking the marrow out of every ray of sunshine, making art, growing tomatoes, watching leaves dance cheering on my children as they score a goal ride their bikes try new foods do hard things talking with neighbors at the park in the garden at the block party over the fence reveling in summer, setting boundaries choosing fun enjoying rest Thank you for your patience. I will write again when it's too dark to play outside after dinner.
