A warm welcome to all who enter here…

Elizabeth Zimmermann Aran Coat 2008

My name is Denise and I’m a “stay at home mom” .  There was a time when I was fortunate enough to have the rare opportunity to make a living doing what I loved.  I’ve managed a yarn store, had my own massage and labor support doula practice, and worked for various publishing companies.  But since the birth of my daughter, Kira (on May 6, 2009), I’ve been doubly blessed to be able to stay home and raise her.  Being a “stay at home mom” is my Peace Corp…”the toughest job you’ll ever love” and I do.  I’m also blessed with an amazing husband who is the reason I can stay home with our daughter and I thank him every day.  I really do!

Another huge blessing of being a SAHM is being able to explore my hobbies.  For years my only creative outlet or form of expression was knitting.  I ate, slept and breathed knitting.  While it will always be where my heart lies I’ve now discovered the joys of sewing and quilting.  It has taken my creativity to a whole new level and to put  it simply…I’m having a great time!!!

My life is rich, wonderful and blessed and I’m happy to have this blog, this space to share it with you.  Nothing beats living and loving in my own earthy one of voice.
