Today is International Women's Day! I am grateful for the women in my life who have influenced me in so many ways, including my mother, who taught me to be strong and independent, resilient, and to keep going. My grandmother, a child of the Great Depression, who taught me unconditional love, frugalness, how to snap green beans and shell peas. My sister, beautiful and creative. My friend - fierce and loyal. My aunt, who drove me to the NICU every day to sit with my son for the first three weeks when I couldn't drive after my c-section. Plus so many more friends, neighbors, teachers, and loved ones who have touched my life. I hope I can give back to the world a little bit of the love the wonderful women who surround me have shown me. FLASH Sale & Charity donation In honor of International Women's Day, I will be donating 10% of all my art sales made on March 8th to P.E.O.

Summertime!  I'm one of those moms who actually loves summer break. I love letting my kids sleep in rather than trying to drag them out of bed every morning (when I am also tired and completely empathize with their lack of motivation!). I love that we can stay up later doing family movies, game nights, and going to the local amusement park together. I also love summer mornings. I start most mornings and end most evenings with a check on my garden. I'm trying some new crops this year (carrots and potatoes). Last year, I grew watermelon and cantaloupe for the first time. I got two big watermelons off my vines, and seven or eight cantaloupes. They were all DELICIOUS! We also love to grow pumpkins every year for decorating and Jack-O-Lanterns in the Fall.  We are in our second year of a severe drought, and this year our irrigation water restrictions are even more strict. Only one day per week to water the entire yard, and for only 40 minutes. Ergh! I've got my DIY rain barrels
