It was my birthday recently.  I turned 59, entering my 6th decade of trips around the sun.  

Birthdays are an important touchstone - a time to take stock of where I am and where I may be headed.  

Spending time making discoveries, both on the beach and in my journal is the way I take stock.  How do you mark your journeys around the sun?

PSST....new work is coming soon!  To shop first, sign up to my email list below:

Or perhaps on vacation in the Caribbean? Or twisting by the pool?

Either way, the Dominica is one of my favourites and a really fun necklace to wear.

Mother's Day has been bitter sweet for me for over 40 years.  You see, I was 11 when my mom passed away.  Mother's Day became a confusing, sorrow-filled day - I would try to honour those who stood in place of my mom, but I was angry that MY mom was not there.  I would wonder what my life would be like if she had lived.  

I am now older than my mom ever was, by a few years.  I can now celebrate her for the strong woman she was and the role she played in my young life. 

And it is still bitter sweet for me.
