When I’m the first one in my area of the office and each section of lights comes on as I pass through, it’s like I’m the bride gliding down the aisle, only instead of rose petals, my pathway is adorned with fresh light. #uffotd #OfficeLightFairies #Magic! #OrJustGoodOlSelfEntertainment

We had our choir concert last night. There’s something magical the morning after a performance. Snippets of the previous evening’s repertoire form a medley in my head. Curls linger, despite time resting on a pillow. Memories of engaged audience members bring morning smiles. Truly the best 💕🎶 #uffotd

Bah! Humbug! Someone has stolen Christmas *again*, but it wasn't the Grinch this time. If the perp doesn't turn things around, someone REALLY unexpected might end up on the Naughty List. #DVPit #PB #HA #Q [in acquisitions, as start of #holiday series]

When Cyril the Coptic camel finds himself with a smell stuck in his nose, he must discover the source if he hopes to shake it loose. Heading up a caravan, Cyril leads his friends on an olfactory journey through the desert, past the Mediterranean Sea, and into the heart of Cairo. #DVPit #OWN #PB #Q

TIPTOE TINA, BALLERINA is ready for the spotlight! There are only two problems: (1) her family is too distracted to be a good audience and (2) her ballet slippers are missing. But Tina knows the show must go on... #DVpit #PB #Q #HA #rhyming

Miles’s words have a mind of their own; try as he might, he cannot contain them. A gift from Mom and Dad might help Miles take control over his words...or the gift might take control over Miles. #DVPit #PB #Q #SEL #ND

I love both! They help me brainstorm, write, revise, and collaborate. I refer to my amassed #Storystorm ideas to create and edit #12x12PB drafts. And I use my #12x12PB learnings to leave thoughtful comments on each #Storystorm post. It’s a perfect way to start each year strong!
