“As soon as I knew how to write, I used poems and short stories to help me process the world around me. They are my private diary and I rarely share my work. This poem is one of my favorites, inspired by a quote from my then 3-year-old son.

I am mom to the three most amazing little humans, a wife, teacher, yogi, and reluctant poet. I am honored and humbled to be a part of this project amongst so many people that I greatly admire.”
