16 things you probably already know

…but the 30 gals I’ll be meeting at ArtNest next month do not. It was asked that we all post a bit of an introduction on our blog. So please, if you already know all this, move on. Do not roll your eyes at my narcissism.

25 things about me and mine

1. I can transform without regret.
2. My brother is the family member I feel closest to.
3. I like to bite the back of my husband’s arm. Hard. He lets me.

Sweet boys

We won’t fight it, Newton said it.
