Do Babies Know Right From Wrong

It made meContinue reading “Do Babies Know Right From Wrong”
Mother’s Day
Today I want to honor my friend Robin. She is a wonderful mother. She is amazing and she doesn’t say stupid things like, “I wish I had your life.” She recognizes the joy of her kids. Visiting her this winter was amazing. This family enjoys every moment together. They recognize how incredibly lucky they areContinue reading “Mother’s Day”
Broken Social Scene: NYC
Best concert of my life. Emily Haines and Jimmy Shaw of Metric played. Kevin Drew emanated love for the crowd and all the musicians. Brendan Canning was hilarious and joyous. All the musicians, all 12 of them (though I lost track of the grand total) were all having a beautiful time. The whole show wasContinue reading “Broken Social Scene: NYC”

My Miracle
Last week, I had a very bad pain. It hurt. I cried. I was a pathetic crying loser. I couldn’t sleep from the pain. I finally prayed. And the pain continued. But I floated away into a much needed sleep. Before I prayed, I was pacing and shaking and crying and punching my pillow andContinue reading “My Miracle”
Conversations about Choices
If something makes you happy–it’s good. If you have a desire to take one path over another, perhaps it’s an inspired desire. If you pray about a choice, and God tells you to make one choice over another, that’s probably the one you oughta go with. It seems simple, doesn’t it? Will someone please explainContinue reading “Conversations about Choices”

And there is no way I’m going to bind myself to any particular order here! 1. “Further the Sky” by The Gabe Dixon Band (featuringContinue reading “Favorite Songs (for today)”
Favorite Photos
I love people. They’re so beautiful. I love when a photo can tell a story. I’ve had the privilege of taking pictures of some of the most intriguing and beautiful people in the world. I am always amazed at what you can capture in a moment.
