About

Hi Friend.

I'm so glad you stopped by.  If you were at my place I'd make sure your cup was full of something warm and your plate filled with something sweet.  That's how I roll.

I'm a Midwestern "city" girl, if that's even a thing. My long-suffering husband and I raise our five boys (yes, you read that right) just outside Des Moines.  We live in the very best neighborhood, within a small town we adore, in a forgettable state and we are happy as clams here.

I went to school for English education, taught a bit around the world and ended up back in the heartland, birthing boys for a living.

I am a bookworm, a mountain-lover, and a passionate pursuer of deep relationships built over shared stories.

My own journey has been an interesting one, and I hope to share more of it on here.  Thanks for your lending your ears (and eyes!), it means the world to me.
