LUCILLE IN THE SKY

Nesting

James and I have been hard at work getting everything ready for the baby. Cleaning, organizing, assembling furniture and installing beautiful new hardwood floors in the top floor of our house. The nesting instinct is real, and strong. Not sure which one of us it has hit harder…

How easy it is to misplace our essence in the tangle of demands, the web of routine, the dopamine of distractions. Everyday is a practice in returning to the dreams we know are true, hunting for beauty in the present, and accepting discomfort as a roadmap for growth. The forgetting happens less often as we commit to the remembering, and the gray shimmers like silver. #silverlinings #paradox #beherenow #gratitude #beachlife #trust #faith #californiadreaming #lifeisbutadream #love

The quirky things I want to remember about raising kids in this city: Every year on this day we walk and take the bus (usually we drive 😬) to avoid heavy traffic due to "celebrations" in Golden Gate Park. Giovanna (age 8) had many questions. The sidewalks smell like 🍃🔥💨 #sanfrancisco

Shake up your routine enough and you'll find you are noticing more, seeing the same old things with fresh eyes. Like the murals in San Francisco and the roses blooming in my garden. Feeling fragmented between my family and my creative projects and the amazing website for which I work. All of it is ambitious and consuming. Cultivating gentleness with myself. I don't have to be perfect. We are all making this up as we go along. #selflove #progressnotperfection #travel #home #urbanart #mural #sf #lifeofanartist #iamenough #clouds

"What's it like having an 11-year-old?" they asked and I didn't have a good answer even though he's almost 12. It's like realizing that your children can see clear through you and you better get your act together tomorrow or it could be too late because time is making them grow up faster than you did. It's a mixture of wonder and pride and the fear you are in over your head. It's wanting to be better, and failing and trying again. It's your greatest teacher understanding how fallible you are. It's your beloved student seeing how much you don't know. It's humbling and expansive and natural and hard. #truth #parenting #stepmama #love #mamalove #lessonsfromchildren #momlife #motherhoodrising

Never underestimate the power of a good adventure or a good friend. 💙💚❤️ #tacoma #pnwonderland #childhoodunplugged
