It’s my favorite time of year, friends: garden planting time! I’ve had so much fun digging in this year–perhaps more than ever.

Giving voice to these pages was a gift. I laughed, I cried, and at one point I broke out into song. I couldn’t help it.

Hello, friends! Wow, what a month! March was packed and refreshing at the same time. A conference, a big trip, a book completed, and there are peach buds on my tree, y’all. It survived the snow! I am so grateful for all that happened in March. Here’s a recap and my PowerSheets goals for April. I love when Gina comes to photograph us. She gets Grace to laugh every time!
