Introduction I have three kids who have taught me more about life than anything else I've done, hands down. I've got Noah, 14 with mental disabilities, who in many ways has led us along our life path as we seek to make a nest for him that is safe and happy. I've got Andy, 11, who came to us through unique circumstances, and is full of life and energy. And then there's Lucy, 6, who has got the best laugh and is often found with her nose in a nice thick book, just like her dad. My husband Scott works at Google. And I am dedicated to a life, well lived with self reflection and kindness thrown in. I'm an ENFP and you can surely tell if you know me. I love our earth and our universe and the wonders contained within.

Never mind the turtle. Don't you think you're sure to win?

Um, don't be messing with Aesop. There is some valuable stuff there. And I'm forever a fan of the turtle, although I support hares and all of their bouncy joy and self confidence too.
