Best Mom-In-Law Ever!

My awesome mother-in-law totally gets me: She showed up yesterday with a PITCHFORK! 👩🏻‍🌾 Best. Gift. Ever.

So pretty

The Chinese Lantern Flowers from my garden. 🍁 🍂

Quick hurry...

My neighbor called to say, “Grab your camera and go see what’s happening at your Little Free Library. Hurry!” 😍 This just melts my (bookish) heart. ❤️📚

Nascar Favorite?

It saves me a lot of time to simply ask the 13-year-old king who makes these decisions for our family.

New titles

Some new additions to my Little Free Library for fall. 📚 🍂 🍁

Loren Long

My friend, the incredibly talented author-illustrator Loren Long. His newest book, “There’s A Hole In The Log At The Bottom Of A Lake,” is a (W)HOLE LOTTA FUN! (See what I did there?) 📚 🐸 💦 🐟 

Fun at the Pumpkin Farm!

Perfect fall day with these lovely ladies. ◀️ AND some pretty pumpkin pictures.

For your phone!

Coming soon from @moonlite.world — A storybook projector for your mobile phone. ❤️

What the Night Sings

This is the kind of book that changes you forever. Beautiful. Painful. Devastating. Uplifting. Some of this story will remain with me forever. I just can’t even begin to describe...

Arts Herndon Festival October 7th, 2018

See you in VA on Sunday, October 7th! @artspaceherndon

Nice!

My husband is 5’6”. My oldest created a text group for himself, his brother and me — and called it THIS. ⬆️ 🤦🏻‍♀️

The House of Lost and Found

This is, seriously, one of the most beautiful and emotional picture books I’ve ever seen. EVER. Thank you to Insta for introducing me to it. ❤️

Read about big trucks...

"We’ll just spend our morning reading about big trucks while brother is at preschool. That is, until nap time, then it’s back to Wuthering Heights." —Thank you for the FAB post and photo @lumenandlitterae !!!

New Board Books

LQQK! (I’m so excited about these new board books! 😁) AVAILABLE SOON! Thank you, @ethanlongdotcom , for doing such a beautiful job! ❤️ 🚧

Anyone?

Is anyone else driving around today with a kart in the back of their minivan? ... Anyone? ... Hello? 🙄

Congratulations Lori!

A couple of rockstars with some good wishes for @lkliterary (It’s Newbery winner Kwame Alexander along with Randy Preston, the musical genius, y’all — in case you didn’t know. 😊)

Construction Site on Christmas Night

I signed my name 3000 times today. 📚🖊❤️
