This week has flown by. There have been many unexpected bumps in the road that have made it challenging but it's Friday! I'm looking forward to a quiet day at home, wrapping up our first homeschooling week of the year, and doing a little reading of my own this evening. On Fridays I write about... Continue Reading →
June 2023 Reading Review + Summer Reading Update
Happy Wednesday, friends! The week so far can be summed up in one word: rain! We have had some amazing rain showers and thunderstorms over the last few days. I can't get enough of it and am so pleased with the rainy weather pattern we've had over the last month or so. Sadly, no rain... Continue Reading →
Friday | A Cloudy & Rainy June!
I don't want to alarm you but it is now mid-June and we're nearly halfway through 2023! How has June been treating you? The weather in New Hampshire has been perfect for me - cloudy and rainy. But it's been hard to keep up with a lot of things this month and I'm looking for... Continue Reading →
Less | A Month of Action

Friday | The One Before the Coronation

At My Desk
What a weekend! Here in New Hampshire, it was relatively warm and sunny. A lot of snow melted so our driveway became Puddle City and, once again, plenty of mud has been tracked into the house. The work is never done! But it is so nice that the kids can get outside and burn off... Continue Reading →
Less In 2023
This is my sixth year to choose a word for the year, believe it or not. Funnily enough, I feel like I've almost come full circle. My first word in 2018 was abundance and today I'm sharing my goal of less. And really - they are the same idea. They're about being content with what... Continue Reading →
A Junction Update | Harikuyo | Chai
Good morning! Can you believe that it's Friday? This has been one of those weeks that has been agonizingly slow while also flying by. Know what I mean? So on one hand, yes. I can believe that it's Friday. And on the other... what is Friday? I can comprehend very little right now. I am... Continue Reading →
A Break
Just a quick note to let you know that I've decided to take this week off from blogging. I wish I could spend it like August the cat in the opening picture, but I don't expect to! I hope all of my American friends have a lovely Thanksgiving and that everyone reading has a week... Continue Reading →
