who we are

Me: Mostly a mom - but also a choreographer, music-lover, reader, dreamer, small-business owner, volunteer, Jackson-5 obsessed tea-drinker who wishes she was more organized, but has basically given up on that.  She also writes most of this blog.


Rico: Crazy-amazing dad, small business owner, college professor, who sometimes eats sweet potato chips in bed and argues with his wife about who the best Beatle is. He's always ready for a good adventure or a big cup of coffee.


Punk: Batman-loving, art obsessed, theater kid who's off to college - not to find himself, because he'll always be the sarcastic goofball who wears his heart on his sleeve, has seen every episode of Friends and drinks way too much Dr. Pepper. We think he went for the cafeteria pizza.

Kooka: Guitar playing, ballerina, singer, actress type who spends her down time in AP science classes and advanced math trying to figure out the physics of a perfect pirouette, the most succulent chocolate cake recipe, or the best way to lower our taxes.

Tiny: Smart and silly animal lover, who likes to draw, dance, make slime, and stay up late for family game night. She loves her dog more than candy, raises monarchs, catches toads, cleans the fishbowl, hand-feeds turtles, but will not go near an aphid - don't even ask.

Oh my! I think I have found my family! Why do I identify and understand you so well? I am old enough to be everyone's grandmother, but never gave up my youth, or a single memory of it, so I can still connect to the younger ones, regardless of age. Ask me anything. I'll tell it like it is, and was. I love honesty, even if it is slightly disguised because of my long discarded notion I once had, that what other people think should dictate my behavior. "Be who you is, not who you is not, for those who be who they is, is the happiest lot!" I am who I am and I accept the individuality of others. It would be boring as heck if everyone was the same, and no one needed someone else to make their life progress a little easier. I get some of my best advice from 3-6 yr. olds! Kids have their original smarts intact.
