We have made it. We have made it a half of a year since my last post, we have made it to month 20 of Storey's life, we (my great husband) has made me a pretty new banner, we have made it to the end of the summer. This half year has been good to us three as you will see in the many updated pictures I have included. But this long, hot and stagnant summer has revealed to me how much I am needing a new season- how much I am needing a deeper soaking in self-discovery. Just this week we have had a small taste of Fall. There has been a slightly cooler, fresher feel to the air that we have been longing for. So I have begun really thinking about and feeling out what my next season could hold. I am hopeful it is a season that our garden is flourishing, I get to spend my every days with Storey, Josh and I continue to explore what living within simplicity means for our family, we continue to challenge the Main Stream, we are intentional about where our foods and goods come from, we continue to encourage a world of discovery, art, creativity, love, acceptance, and fairies for Storey, but
I am also hopeful that there will be a new outlet for creative expression for
