Oh, the thumb-sucker’s thumb
May look wrinkled and wet
And withered, and white as the snow,
But the taste of a thumb Is the sweetest taste yet
(As only we thumb-suckers know).:: Shel Silverstein, “Thumbs”
Thumbs

Hi!
I'm a writer who mothers and a mother who writes. I live in the desert with my husband and 3 kids. I channel my inner control freak by working professionally as an editor and content manager for some pretty great blogs and bloggers. This space is where I play with words and post pictures of my family.

Early morning coffee delivery, snuggles with a new person, and the bittersweet knowledge that I'll be the visitor from now on. And by bittersweet I mean 99.57% sweet, 00.43% bitter.
