Thinking of you! I and so many of your neighbors to the south believe these tariffs are outrageous and unfair! I hope yours and others' businesses survive and thrive!

I have a story to tell as well. Hugs to you, it's heartbreaking to think of the fear lived with, then and now. 💔

I'm not going out again without cotton in my ears in this weather. And yes, that is under a hat. I have a sore ear tonight from being outside! Brrrrrr, indeed!

I’m still relatively new too, but I 💯 recommend these organizations for #kidlit @scbwi.bsky.social and @highlightsfound.bsky.social As well as this book by Ann Whitford Paul. Writing Picture Books should be required reading for any #PB author. Following closely to see what others recommend!

Every New Year’s Eve, I don’t do resolutions, but I come up with a word to be my focus word for the coming year. I’m not sure what my word will be yet. But a strong contender is “kintsugi,” which is the Japanese art of repairing cracked ceramic vessels with gold.
