Lovely words. They made me think about the advice from Michael Thompson (?? I can't remember now!) about preparing the child, not the path.

I'm always looking for good recs! I'm reading The Song Poet by Kao Kalia Yang right now, and I'm enjoying it very much, but I'll be sure to add Tippet's book to my TBR pile. I am reading and writing more than "usual," but it still feels like I'm hardly doing much of either activity. Time slips away even faster these days, it seems.<br /><br />Keep enjoying every single moment with your little ones and family.

I've been trying to figure out which of her collections to select, and this might be it. If you're looking for a recommendation, try Krista Tippett's Becoming Wise. It is the best thing I've read in so long, not necessarily for the style (although that's good, too), but more so because of how rich the THOUGHT was on every page. So good. I'll say more about it in my next "What I've Been Into" post. <br /><br />Hope you continue to find yourself writing and reading more than not!Emily Brissehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03784086623918098981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5646797751527572885.post-49889012156771882922017-05-15T12:24:55.858-05:002017-05-15T12:24:55.858-05:00Audrey: thank you!
