Update on our family shenanigans and other transitions.

New book covers, wider distribution for my titles, plus my very eventful/uneventful start to the year.

Tiptoeing through time and space back to India, where we made friends for life--and where our love story began.

Sometimes it is easier said than done to be gentle on yourself. Use this wallpaper as a reminder. Happy Friday.

"You will enrich your life immeasurably if you approach it with a sense of wonder and discovery, and always challenge yourself to try new things." - Nate Berkus

"Then the world discovers as my book ends how to make two lovers of friends."

This past weekend, our family went down to Red Deer to support Jason as he ran his first "Super" Spartan Race, which is 8 miles in length (and 20-plus obstacles).

As much as I enjoy travelling, and visiting, and adventuring, by the time we pulled into our yard at 11 p.m. last Friday, I was VERY ready to be home, and so were the boys.

However, we all enjoyed our week at Tony and Candace's. Jabin actually refers to their place as "Naomi's house"--you can tell who he sticks like glue to while we visit there. Something about them both being five--they get along like two peas in a pod.
