I'm so in love with the illustrations from Suzy Lee's wordless book Mirror. It's a delightful piece to flip through for a moment of self-reflection.

Today is a rainy September 11th. Someday, you'll better understand what this day stands for. For now, you're grateful to be up and checking out the world from an upright perspective. I love you, sweet Gabrielle.

I haven’t been able to wrap my brain around how to explain September 11th to my twins – I will look for that book – thanks!
Jessica, wondering if you can tell me about your rain-boot socks – are they Hunter? I have black Hunter (original tall) boots and need some nice socks for them.
Thank you!
Leni – Thanks for the suggestion. I love the idea of a children’s book to help teach the story of what happened. I’ll check that one out!
There is a great children’s book called September 12th (written by a classroom that was near the twin towers the day they fell). It would be the perfect way for Gabrielle to understand about Sept. 11.
she’s a stylin’ baby girl!
Very sweet post. It is amazing that our children don’t know what happened on 9-11 but oneday will. Thanks for an interesting perspective.
Love Gabrielle’s boots!

We are back in Charlotte after a month-long trip out to the West Coast – to visit family and friends and work on Jeffrey's next book. It was such a wonderful time. (A chance to meet my friend Jessie's little Max, a wonderful day with Jessie and Rebekah, witnessing my big sister participate in her…

the photo of you walking with your daughter & mom is amazing!! so beautiful!
After seeing your photos, and finding out that some of Jeffrey’s books are now available in iBooks, I immediately got my iPad out and tried to purchase them. I was disappointed to find out that they’re only available to the US market right now, not the Canadian store. I hope this changes very soon!
Maybe one day I’ll get to visit the west coast!

Precious girl! When my son took his first steps, I just lost it. I was boohooing. It was so inspiring to see him take those steps!
Oh, and totally not child-related, but I must say, you inspired me to pick up that three-dots grey cardi you’re wearing in your “Today’s Style” photo. I have it in the stripe version (and I looove it), but you looked so chic in your grey one, I had to have it too!

YAY!!! for you sweetie I can’t wait to see you …. I’m so proud of you!!!
