On Friday, we marked the 10th year without our Mother. 🌿💕🌿

A woman who was always smiling, always singing, always showing us how to do something-a born teacher. If you walked in her door, she’d find you a chair. If you needed help, she was there. Her light continues to guide us. ✨

along the way

My sister and I have been finding sources to guide us in which businesses to support. Shop small and local when we can. And we are looking forward to the Economic Blackout on February 28th.
No money spent.
It’s become too easy. Calling representatives, too. Visit 5calls.org to learn how to join in.

The Gaither Sisters Trilogy by Rita Williams-Garcia is a favorite. One Crazy Summer was unanimously selected by the students to be our tween book club title this month!
(P.S.Be Eleven is my favorite. I hope the love continues and they read the whole series.) What a privilege to share these voices.

Each week I change up the display as titles are checked out to try to highlight the incredible books we are fortunate to have in our collection.

It’s an honor to help curate a collection and feature books that tell stories of a long, hard and proud history. Many titles can be found on free library apps, like Libby and Hoopla. 🤎📚✌🏼
