Mother, wife, photographer, romantic. I'm an enneagram 4w5 - a creative but quiet observer, who thinks, feels, and connects deeply. Call me an old soul.
I believe in:
- Being a kind human
- Living a furiously grateful life
- Dancing with your love when your song plays wherever you are
my love and i are raising our family in a little neighborhood known as beaverdale. we have an old home that we've slowly made ours. my youngest is a wild FOUR years old, our middle has four legs, we call him chewy for short, and my oldest is officially a TEENAGER now, and officially taller than me.
i dearly love des moines and the community around us.
