What to expect during your first session. You will most likely be greeted at my front door by Maggie and Emmy, our two rescue dogs. They will sniff you and once they realize you are friends, they will beg for a treat 🙂 I have a short form that you will fill out,...

Pure Joy. A couple weeks ago I went Christmas shopping with Marc. I wasn’t really feeling it, but I went anyway. What a good sport he is to put up with my moodiness this time of year and for trying to pull me out of it. It’s not that I don’t like Christmas. I have...

Footprints in the sand. Five months ago I set out on a journey with ten strangers. These strangers, nine classmates and one amazing teacher, have become my tribe. We have spent every other weekend together. Sometimes laughing, sometimes crying, ALWAYS learning. This...
