I’ve been meaning to post this picture for a while now because it is just too cute. A few times during the week, Laina and I get together with our friends to play. This is separate from the MOMS club where we get together with a larger group of kids–so […]
Last weekend, we headed out to the Baha’i Center in Sterling with our friends to see an amazing performance by Kevin Locke. He is a Native American known throughout the world for his incredible hoop dancing. He is also a traditional storyteller and plays the flute. He believes in the […]
