Dear Mr. Nadeau:... See more
As long as there is one upright man, as long as there is one compassionate woman, the contagion may spread and the scene is not desolate. Hope is the thing that is left to us, in a bad time. I shall get up Sunday morning and wind the clock, as a contribution to order and steadfastness.

Our lives are bereft of ways to see people in the low-effort, regular, and repeating ways our brains were designed to connect through.

And through that, things get unlocked that allow writing and performances to be more closer to the core. And that’s the goal with all of this.

In choosing how we are in the world, we shape our experience of that world, our contribution to it. We shape our world, our inner world, our outer world, which is really the only one we’ll ever know. And to me, that’s the substance of the spiritual journey. That’s not an exasperating idea but an infinitely emboldening one.

a favorite in our household 💕 baby girl’s birthday is this weekend and it was time to update her birthday face banner. I got a lot of questions about how we make these and my answer is always as loose as the others.. sky is *always* the limit. but here’s the basics! supplies: -cardstock or thick paper -different paper/material. Basically anything in the scrap bin! -a couple of these papers are my wrapping paper (coming soon!) -tacky glue (not hot glue) -twine, string or ribbon -any extras like glitter, poms, tissue paper, crepe paper etc. -I like to choose pictures from every age (starting at the very beginning!) and print their faces to a good size to fit as a banner. I printed two of her faces to one 8.5x11” page, so they’re all relatively close in size. -Cut out party hats! This is where you can go as subtle or adventurous as you want. I always go the latter, shocker there. Then glue to the head of each face. -space out each cut out evenly to your liking, then secure the faces with string/ribbon/twine on the back. I use two strands to make it extra secure. And leave a lot of extra on the ends so you can add on over time 🎀
