Dear Thisbe...

Rhymes With The Familiar

About me

Introduction	I am a writer and a mommy and a wife and a teacher. I believe in both Santa and Jesus. I like dirty jokes and soft, lacy sweaters from anthropologie. I watch Law and Order when I should be reading and I read novels when I should be writing. My daughter, Thisbe, was born on September 3rd, 2009. My son, Matteus, was born on July 31st, 2013. I am trying to figure out how to be all the things I am at once, without sticking a fork in my head. And I am trying to fill my children up with all the best things in life: love and grace and sarcasm and good poems and chocolate. Some days I do better than others. This blog is about all the days, good and bad, because most of all, I want to give my children their stories. From the beginning.
