Valentine’s Day date after a decade and two kids together! #loveisblind

Kids are off for snow, but this central office employee still has to work. 😩

Danny Go saves my ass again.

The annual Howard County Hunger Games: summer camp registration.

My daughter’s class is celebrating their 100th day of school with a “glow in the dark party” aka a Pre-K rave. 😆

Her teachers make every day magical. We’re so lucky to have them. #baltimorecityschools

Finished my fourth book of the year. This was a delight to read.

The bittersweetness of converting the crib to a “big boy bed” 🥺🥹 #motherhood #parenthood

Any local (HoCo MD) folks want to join me in reading and a book club discussion of @jenniferberkshire.bsky.social & @jackschneider.bsky.social ‘s latest?

Delighted to be in a racial equity session offered by the Equity Office at Baltimore City Schools. #deimakesusbetter

My daughter attends a school that serves predominately Hispanic children. She came home with these papers today. I’m so grateful that she’s in a school committed to protecting the community, but can we all just share a collective “what the fuck?!” here? There’s so much fear. 💔😭 #fdt

Just finished my third book of the year.

If you’ve been wondering how the f*ck we got here, add this to your TBR.

My life has been enriched by immigrants. Please share and protect the people my family and I hold dear.
