Popping in quickly to wish everyone a happy new year and confirm that I still exist and take photos of flowers and creatures. I took my toddler to the garden every week from early spring to late fall, and have managed a few winter trips, too (but mostly to see the train show lol). I feel especially proud of the photos I took while wrangling him with one arm for safety reasons. Special thanks to family and friends who joined on many occasions, and to whomever left seeds on our favorite paths just before our arrival almost every week. We had some magical Disneyesque moments with the birds, squirrels, and chipmunks. E knows all their names and wants the ones who migrated to come back from 47567893rd Street already, wherever that is. Our adventures have kept me sane in an insane world.
