Time well spent

I heard a quote last fall that affected me in a profound way. “Extra time doesn’t allow you to do more, it allows you to be more.” Ever since, I’ve tried to add a 30 minute buffer to when we need to leave the house. This has allowed me to model grace and kindness to Amelia through my words (tone!) and deeds.
My mum, always said, “impatience is never attractive.” As evidenced by anyone raging in the car behind you! Or me, if we’re running late.
Today, instead of busting out the super long list of outdoor chores, I built a fort with this silly girl. After 29 years in Southern California and 15 in the SF Bay Area, I love that I finally live in a place with space to play, explore and live my very best life.

    Hi - I am a wedding and event planner that recently moved from the San Francisco bay area into the Phineas Wright House, in Bolton, MA.  Here, you will find stories about our New England life, the fabulous discoveries that each day brings and all the things that make me smile. Thanks for visiting!
