Lately I’ve been thankful for the opportunity to help others by sharing my story, conversations about volcanoes with my squirmy almost-7-year-old, healthy fast-food lunches on the go, tradition passed down through generations, local theater teachers who invest in and inspire my girl, fried rice for breakfast, backyard grass and warm spring afternoons, unplugged weekends and times of rest, friends who hold hands, unexpected hot air balloon sightings on the way…
The lint catcher in my dryer is full of sunflower seeds which means baseball season is in full swing again. So why not do a post about all things American Pastime? First up, a few friends and I threw a vintage baseball themed baby shower last week for our friend Whitney.

I love the perspective Whitney has on these last few weeks. While most women are nearing the end and begging the baby to get the heck out of there, she is taking time to be thankful. Our photo…
Last week I promised you the recipe for simple fish tacos Leila requested on her birthday. I make these all the time, and the kids go crazy for them. I think part of the reason is because the fish, while delicious, is also mild in flavor (and not “fishy” at all).
